QuestionI have a GCC, about six weeks old, and weaned. He has lost his tail feathers. Is this normal?
AnswerHello Don and thank you for your post.
Keep a watch on him. His tail feathers should start to grow back in a couple of weeks. It is possible that he is breaking them off while climbing aroud his cage. If they do not start to grow back in a couple of weeks, I recommend that you take him into a Certified avian or an Exotic Animal Vet for a check up. He may have an underlying health issue.
Please keep me updated.
Good luck and God Bless.
