Question about Pets:My pet dove has started plucking out feathers and has chewed and pecked his skin bloody. Any suggestions?


used to breed canaries and pigeons.this problem looks like your pet dove has (red mite)this is a minute bug that sucks/lives on the doves blood,and turns red after feeding.all good pet shops should stock a redmite spray to kill of the wee blighters.you should spray all birds regularly with this spray.a little gremolene antiseptic should be applied to bare unfeathered skin.feathers will /should grow back as normall next year
