		<description>Hello, I was wondering what causes a bird to pick their feather&#039;s off of their belly&#039;s and under their wings?

Thank you.</description>

		<description>Hey Donna, I saw your post and thought I could be of some help. If you have multiple cockatiels, it is possible that you will observe mating. If you have a male and female, this could of course lead to breeding which is not suited for everyone. 

It is also possible you might observe &quot;mounting&quot; if you have a same sex pair since it is very common for cockatiels to bond to one another regardless of sex. 

***Mating sometimes will lead to eggs (young females and older females might have a harder time to conceive an egg). Since this is pretty common with female cockatiels, the eggs might not be fertile and they will sit on them not knowing any better. My female is in a cage by herself next to a male one in a separate and yesterday she laid egg #5 but they are not going to hatch or become anything since we know no mating was involved and just a male singing could make a female&#039;s hormones raise and induce infertile egg laying.

Hope I was able to help in one way or another. Take Care, Justin.

		<description>Why is my bird (cockatiel age 9 yrs.) always scratching himself. What can use to spray on him to relieve this, he is always in his cage.</description>
