Galah
My 2.5 yr old Galah came through a heavy molt several months ago , but his wing feathers have not been right since. She looks continuously bedraggled despite pruning etc. and has been like this for about 4 months. Plume sprays don’t improve. I also put mite control in the water but no improvement.
My brother thinks it is Quill mite…
I put some invermectin on her neck yesterday.
I would be grateful for any feedback and treatment suggestions.

Their is no skin issue, no plucking…
Do you think it is mite?
My local vet is not bird minded an not very helpful.
 
An avian vet is your best way to be positive. It could be stress, nutrition or something else. Hope you can get help for your Galan.
