molting.  I say appear because it dosen't seem as if he is loosing alot of
feathers yet he has quite a few pin feathers.  He appears to have orange
poop.  I haven't feed him anything orange.  He still plays, ...

I was wondering if anybody knew of a veterinarian who deals with birds
only in the south Florida area. Or if there is a way of finding one
