Thanks didn't know heat could start a molt I guess that explains why she's molting rather early. I been bathing every second day sometimes daily due to heat she quite likes it.
Now I just need to fix this picky creatures eating habits as I think she may be underweight (her keel is kinda pronounced).
I have a gram scale on it's way here. I have no idea how to find out what's a healthy weight as theyre's alot of factors like age, gender, parents and sub species.
Parrots either add or reduce specific feathers based on the weather they are exposed too, connected to the natural changing of the Seasons. It is important to understand that Feathers are Expensive! That means each feather requires energy from a high quality natural based diet and stores from the body too create. Point being, they are careful not to add too many Feathers during the very early Winter and not molting more Feathers than needed during the very early Summer.
There is a normal 'volume' at the start of a late Spring Molt from there during the Summer, they may need to further reduce the number of or hold based on the weather they are exposed too. So, you are not seeing a new Molt, but an adjustment based on need!
Your baby is still young and likely has not been allow to fledge or may just begining to learn how to fly! The Keel Supports (the foundation of) the flight muscles! Begin able to feel the Keel at this age is not totally out of normal.
What is the target weight for your Parrot at its age is something a like owner, your Avian Vet, or Breeder is more likely to have.
Weight is an important part of understanding the health status of your Parrot. It can also become a process of driving yourself Nuts!
Weight is taken every day, in the morning, before the first meal and after the early morning movement i.e., your Parrot is empty! That weight is written down, with the day and time. As time passes, you will begin to see the further growth of your Young Parrot as it adds muscle and overall mass. In addition, you will see minor variations during the year with the effects of Winter and Summer.
Now, until your parrot transitions between a young Parrot and becomes a young Adult Parrot. You will see a growth in weight and then a leveling off.
At this point in your young Parrots life you should not be limiting food and doing your best at introducing and expanding your Parrot's diet.
