Question

How do you know if a bird is stressed?

Answer 1

There are several signs that can indicate if a bird is stressed:

1. Feather plucking or self-mutilation
2. Loss of appetite
3. Aggression or excessive vocalization
4. Changes in behavior, such as increased or decreased activity levels
5. Pacing or repetitive movements
6. Respiratory issues or unusual breathing patterns

If you notice any of these signs in a bird, it is important to consult with a veterinarian who specializes in avian care to determine the cause of the stress and provide appropriate treatment.
