Hi all,
Brought my new female Caique home on Sunday. Things are great , she seems happy and adjusting well. She was hatched on 12/23/12 and raised in a cage with her brother in her breeders home with cats,dogs,and kids so she is already used to the activity at our home(2boys 2smalldogs)
Here's my question. I noticed when we picked her up own Sun day that the end of her tail feathers and the edge of her longest wing feathers look raggedy. Is impossible that she or her brother over preened her or that she was too big for her previous cage? I never see her preening her feathers and there is nothing at the bottomof the cage. Anything I should be watching out for?
Thanks for your help!
