feathers

Question
I have an African grey.He/she is 4 years old.Recently I've noticed that his feathers have a yellowish tint to them.several times during winter months I added camomile tea to his shower spray.Could it be from this?

Answer
Hi, Dalia,

Problems with feather quality can be so many different things.  It could be the tea (why do you add camomile tea to spray your bird's feathers?), but could be many other things as well, including diet, stress, just to name a couple.  I would need more detailed information from you.  You can also take your bird to a certified avian vet for evaluation.
