My parakeets is pulling at her chest feathers?
I just saw her chest feathers were weird so I gave her a bath, thinking maybe she was scratching and needed to be cleaned. Then I saw her after, pulling on her chest feathers - not preening, actually pulling on them, she was walking backwards, pulling them.
Her cage buddy died about three weeks ago, and I had four other birds and got another one, so she still has her four other normal buddies and one new friend. Is she doing it because her cage friend passed away?

feather plucking can be VIT deficiency, stress , egg laying mode, mites? dry skin due to dry air?
use bird wash bath spray , increase fresh foods my birds like pasta, celery lettuce corn on the cob - cobs if BORED they can gnaw on the corn cob
keep her in a separate cage for a while?

possibly but if the new cage buddy is a boy she might be trying to show off in front of him!
