So My girl neon has been shedding a LOT of feathers lately. And they're not those puffy white ones.. They're the big coloured ones. Im collecting at least 30 of them everyday.. I dont see any pinfeathers so i guess she's not molting.
She's had a few pinfeathers popping up throughout the year but it wasnt a full on molt... Any help? Thanks :D
 
Pictures of?? Her feathers?
Im getting worried. I picked up like 20 feathers at least this morning. That's how much she's shedding overnight :(
I know she's not plucking, because a few feathers fall off even when I give her a head scratch.
All that, and at least 1 one the long wing/tail feather everyday. That's not normal.. :(
 
Sounds just like molting. You don't see the pin feathers straight away.
Give it time and you will most likely see the new feathers coming in.

Pictures of the feathers would be helpful.
 
Well the first time she molted she hardly shed any feathers..
plus, she always had a few pinfeathers throughout they year.. so if there's anytime for pinfeathers, its now.. and I dont see a single one..
But thanks.. im kinda not-so-freaked now :P:D
