Why would a canary lose the feathers around his neck?
A canary can lose neck feathers due to several factors, including stress, poor nutrition, or health issues such as infections or parasites. Feather plucking, either from boredom or behavioral problems, can also lead to feather loss. Additionally, molting, a natural process where birds shed old feathers, may cause temporary loss in that area. If feather loss is significant or accompanied by other symptoms, it's advisable to consult an avian veterinarian.

Yes, mature Peacocks do lose some of their feathers. After about age three, they begin cycles of annual molting of their long tail feathers. This usually occurs in summer, around July or August. After each molting, the tail feathers will be longer and have more "eyes". They drop the feathers here and there around the grounds where they roam, making it easy to find and collect them if you are lucky enough to live with them.
