If you have your notary commission, read on. If not, please click HERE to get started. If your state is not yet listed (it will be soon) then the next best step is to contact your Secretary of State's office. All offices now have websites that can be useful (although I am not impressed with the New York site).
Among our pet birds, the uropygial gland (preening gland or oil gland) is found on budgies, parrots (except Amazon parrots), canaries, most finches, cockatoos and waterfowl. It is absent in doves, pigeons, Amazon parrots and Hyacinth macaws.uring preening, a bird transfers this oil to its feathers by rubbing its head and beak against the oil gland and then spreading the oil over the feathers on the rest of the body..
Whether a parrot is plucking or chewing its feathers, the causes and cures are usually the same. The following describes some the possible causes of plucking, and what you can do about it. It is important to remember that each individual is different.or example, a diet that does not have enough protein may cause a parrot to start eating his own feathers to supplement his diet. Sometime a diet too low in fat will cause plucking in some greys. Each animal is an individual and will metabolize nutrients differently. So what works for one, may not work for another.
