BFD and French Moult in Budgies

[BIRDIGIRL]

I thought this might be an informative source of knowlege for anyone breeding budgies or coming accross a 6 week old baby budgie who is missing some wing and tail feathers...feathers can break for many reasons but french moult seems to have particular patterns to the feather loss as well as other indications and I felt it would be good to be aware of the signs and symptoms and treatment of French moult in budgies.
