macaws parrots

Can a stop or plucking macaw parrot is a habit of life?

Someone is selling a macaw and I really want one, but has a problem of plucking. The seller said it rescued from someone who had seriously neglected. I want to know if you can get a parrot to stop booting with TLC?

Tricky Question: NAFTA helps but there is more than that. This custom is no different to anorexia, bulimia, or self-harm (cutting) is a kind of manifestation physics of what is going on with them clinically or psychologically, and some do as a result of stress. There are other causes as well: Poor diet, sleep is not enough, and bacterial infections can be caused by plucking. The problem is that after it has begun, is a symptom of something else, a habit itself. There are several ways to attack the problem: 1. First get the limpet to a avian vet, pronto. 2. We have a blood panel. This gives an image their overall health as well as bacterial counts and weaknesses you may have. If you can attack the problem from a clinical standpoint, might be able stop there. 3. King Richard's company, "King Cages" has developed a topical and internal fluid that seems to help: it is called Pluck-No-More and I've seen good results from it, and very little results. It depends on how well you follow directions and how tenacious you are with the program. You have to follow the instructions precision to even have a hope to work. It is necessary to keep them there for many months. 4. Make sure you are getting a balanced diet. If he is on a seed only diet, begin weaning him off of it and now get a well-rounded feeding program. 5. Make sure you are getting 10 to 12 hours of silence, dark, uninterrupted sleep each night. 6. Doing what is called "packing crate". Make sure you have access to all kinds of toys Chewable: raffia, wood, leather, paper, wood bottle, coconut shell, etc. Go to a bird shop and get anything that looks like it's tempting and chewable. A then observe what seems to like to play and chew. Note that each passing minute is a little more chewing time when it is chewing on his own feathers. You need to provide an alternative material for which he is as interesting as his own body. 7. Completely ignore the behavior. Do not inadvertently reinforce his plucking, calling attention to it. Do not correct him when he does not look and do comment. There are many websites with information available to you: Google: "feather plucking" and you will see hundreds of results with information about the condition. Nobody really knows what causes the problem, in some cases, and varies from bird to bird, whether the feathers grow back, even if they stop plucking. I have a gray rescued was pulled from the negative environment 8 months ago. She was almost completely bald. Today, the only part not covered with feathers and down is the chest. However, the feathers and down are beginning to close, making the area started smaller and smaller. So they can do. I have a front row seat in my room and I see my Gray's progress every day. If the follicles are damaged, this can not happen. You will have to adjust to their appearance and love him just as he is. But the real issue is trying to figure out what you're doing and correct these problems. If all the negative aspects have been corrected, then only to face the fact that there is a Plucker. But you'll have a healthy bird, as a result of attacking the problem from all angles. On the other hand, if you get in a stable, love and healthy environment, you may just stop. My rescued Gray did. Good luck and I hope this has helped.
