This usually means your budgie is molting. But if it's too early or too late, it could be a French Molt. The best thing to do is to take your budgie to the vet. Feather-plucking is a sign of boredom. Check your budgie if it's feather-plucking. Then take it to the vet or give it new toys.
Definitely! If a budgie has dull feathers, it may not be getting proper nutrients, but if it has feathers that look like a sickly greenish-brown color, it need WAY more water. it may being poisoned with too much nutrients. DO NOT over-feed these things But, yes. If your little Budgie buddy has colorful feathers, and seems to not lack energy, he is the picture of health! Have fun with your Budgie!
Prolly means your budgie is sick, please take to the vet.

Budgies can't pull out feathers that they can't reach with their beaks. If a bird is losing feathers on its head or neck, the problem is not plucking (unless a cagemate is responsible for the plucking). Bald spots are not normal for budgies, even elderly ones. You should consult an avian veterinarian.
They are molting. losing feathers and replacing them with new ones. it happends to all chickens.

Your, budgie may be suffering from an unknown disease, seek medication for it ASAP.
It is not unusual for a budgie (parakeet) to molt in the winter. You might want to watch out because usually they are cranky when they molt! (But they like having those itchy new feathers to be scratched)
