: : I have 2 parakeets/or lovebirds (they seem to kiss each other) (male and female). Well the male is losing its feathers. I'm not talking about wing or tail feathers, but he's losing the plumage on his neck/chest area and he had a bare spot on his back. Is this normal or should i take him to a vet? I have a chihuaha so i thought maybe some fleas got on the birds or my dog could get some sort of ilness from the birds.
I do not know enough about lovebirds to advise you.
I would take him to an Avian Vet.
God Luck and keep us posted.
