Removing my bird some feathers

[jousze]

Hello!

I ordered some kits for knowing the sex of my Amazon and also for knowing his genetical stuff, cause Mambo is smaller than normal so I'm curious.

Those test work with feathers, which means that I have to plucker's 3 to 4 feathers from my bird..
Do you recommend any way which doesn't really hurt? Mambo is quite delicate so hurting him would make him hate me for a month lol.
I apparently have to plug at least 3 feathers from the neck, belly (I don't know how do we call it) or from his back.

Thanks !

Restraining your Amazon with a towel will likely be the key here. I have never had to do this personally so cannot offer more advice.
