Hello everyone -
I was hoping to get your advice, help or/and opinions on one of my Parakeets "Jerry". I took these two in "benny and Jerry" about 4 years ago from a friend that had no business having any animals to be honest. Anyway, I wasnt a bird fan but I got them a new cage "yellow color" just for their own fun, I get them different toys every once and a while to freshin things up. I had them on organic "Vita" seed diet with veggies but lately I am giving Harrisons super fine another try (mixing a little with the seeds). Cage is always cleaned and they get about 80% of the day free fly time in the room they are in.
Here is my concern, Jerry "the green one in the photo" has been missing a chunk of hair under his wing, I was told this is normal and it happens. Its been like this for a year or so, I took him to the vet and he said he looks good with no apparent issues. I just want to run this by folks that may have seen this in the past.
Edit: One more question, I tried putting a bathing tub for them and they never used it, do you guys have any good recommendations for how to bath them? do they need it? is there an organic spray of some soft I can buy online or at the pet store that they would like or enjoy or help their skin or feathers stay healthy?
Thank you all
