Lisa Shea Forums Parakeets General Parakeet Chat what happened to her tail?!?!?!

why is her tail shorter,
I'm guessing the tip tail feather fell off but is that alright




ps. the other two pics are just cuz she's so cute, but the one of both of them u can see the difference in their tails.

You don't need to worry when your keet drops its longest tail feathers. Remember, they have to drop and replace all their feathers periodically (not all at once, of course), and that includes the tail.

Even if she lost it to being pulled out instead of falling out because of normal moulting, it's still okay as long as she didn't bleed or anything.

You should see new long tail feathers growing in a couple or a few weeks.

She has more tail than Aruba!! He only had ONE tail feather and it fell out a week after it grew in. I just call him stubby!!

My girl lost most of her tail feathers too. Right now she only has two.

ohh okk that's good

That had happened to my keet Molly. I freaked out too!:P But not to worry, like the others said, it will grow back eventually:)

btw, your right, those pctures are really cute!

My baby Sydney does that too, I remember the first time I was like O my gosh! is he ok? but it grew back in a couple of weeks. So no need to worry

PS the pics are cute!
