Nico has been doing excellent. I haven’t seen him feather pluck at all to any extent since I adopted my macaw. He actually seems to be doing better. He’s trying new foods that I couldn’t get him to try before. I was extremely worried about Nico with his emotional sensitivities. He shares a room with my macaw. I am hoping this isn’t the quiet before a huge storm.
I was gone for the entire day last Friday. I maybe spent an hour with Nico if that. Usually I’d get home, and cry because he would rip out so many feathers. I always feel terrible for leaving him. There was no feathers plucked, and it didn’t seem to faze him that I was gone.
