Oh...and does anyone have any advice/peference/experience with travel carriers/cages/packs for Zons? I'm considering a harness as well, however not knowing how good she is about being touched the harness may have to come later.
Since Dorita has been soo used to traveling with her original owner all across the united states I am hoping to include her in much of my activities as possible to HOPEFULLY discourage the plucking.
I'm thinking I want to invest in some type of carrier that will make including Dorita in as much of my outdoor and errand time as easy and hassle free as possible.
Anyone's experience will be helpful to me.
Thanks!
FIND OUT WHAT THE FORMER OWNER DID, AND DO THAT.
The bird knows THAT.
The loss of her owner, and the loss of THAT is most likely the source of the plucking. And since it just happened, getting back some sense of normalcy and love... will probably reduce the plucking, or stop it altogether.
