amazon feathers turning brown
by GREG
(KENNEWICK WA.)
I have a 1 1/2 year old Yellow Napped Amazon and recently his chest feathers started turning a off green brown color. It is from the neck down.
He seems to be molting and was wondering if this is part of the process? Someone told me that when they molt the feather starts to lose blood supply the feather will turn brown in green feather birds especially. I was wondering if this is true?
He is active, eats well, very happy, doesn't seem to have anything wrong except the feathers. I have not had a Amazon before and would appreciate any thoughts. GREG...
