Parrot What age should a parrot first start molting?

Question by EVAN: What age should a parrot first start molting?
I have a 3-4 yr old quaker parrot he’s been losing alot of feathers lately.

Best answer:

Answer by Caiti
I’d be really surprised if he didn’t start moulting sooner – parrots usually moult at least once a year to refresh old feathers. He probably moults more often but in far less amounts, to the point where it might not be noticeable.

He’s likely just going through a big moult. Offer him lots of greens, water and toys to keep him amused during.

What do you think? Answer below!
