Hi, Bing has been moulting for about almost 2 months now, just wondering whether this is normal as i have heard it takes 2-3 weeks, what i mean by still moulting is he still has pin feather all over his head and cheeks and dont seem to be opening...

 

any suggestions???

Hey Andrew some birds take a while to molt, I wouldn't stress about it as it takes a month or 2 or 3 for molting

i had one of my budgies take 3 months to go through her first moult.

I agree, its normal.

I wouldn't be too worried, but there is such a thing as moulting aid, which is a suppliment you can give them. It assists them in moulting. I think you can get it from pet shops and maybe even online

It is normal, I have that all the time, it really has to do with the artifical air conditions & heating that we have in our home.

well we havent any artificial heating in our house at the moment because we don't want to harm him, but i think we'll have to end up putting him in the front room so we can hav the heater on in the back room as it is winter here now which will be sad as we wont be able to watch him while were watching tv

why can't se stay in your living room? Mine is in mine and we have heat going through our house in the winter .

Poor Bing, I hope he finishes moulting soon

well we have a plug in gas heater and i thought that it is harmful to birds as it gives off gas (natural gas)

My Pat's been moulting since FOREVER! He's really a long moulter. In fact, all my budgies take ages to moult. So no worries there, just... enjoy vacuuming I guess. Eep.
