Why isn't my canary molting?

Canary molting can be influenced by various factors, including age, diet, and environmental conditions. If your canary is not molting, it could be due to inadequate nutrition, as a diet lacking essential vitamins and minerals can impede the molting process. Additionally, stress or changes in the bird's environment, such as temperature fluctuations or lack of proper lighting, may also affect molting. Lastly, some canaries may simply have a slower natural molting cycle.
