Generally when a bird is plucking - it means it is stressed or has a skin or feather problem. Do you bathe it regulary and has there been any dramatic changes or owner changes recently. Make sure the bird cage is against a wall, has minimal activity especially for sleeping and is receiving 12 hours of darkness a night to sleep. A cage cover is good for this. Also, keep it away from drafts and make sure there are no other animals stalking it. Also, if there has been more people handling them or poking fingers etc. in the cage, this will add to it.
