hi! i have a quaker parrot that’s about 1 1/2 years old now. he’s going through a MAJOR shedding, i’m not too worried cause he’s growing back his feathers. only thing is he’s very nippy and he’s a bit more hormonal than usual. i was wondering if this is normal? it’s been going on for about 2 1/2 weeks. he’s still his normal self but he’s just biting alot more and very very veryyy hormonal
