Alot bird s when they get to fat weight dont eat so much or all of there food also the weather dosent help when i is real hot and muggy. If any doubts about her well being suggest you take her to the vets for a once over:)

do not worry about it mate....my FH has gone bit like that now..had her 4 years now and is totally normal, also vary the diet, they probably get sick of the food you are feeding it, vary her diet, my particular variation is shin beef, doc's, quail, mice, rabbit,gerbil, pheasant and what ever she catches herself in the aviary sparrows ect!!
if she is 2.9 just give her the minimal i.e a couple doc's or half of quail, just dont over do it because they just aint that hungry..but with a varied diet you might see a difference.
(always monitor the weight tho)Hi,

same again here mate, my birds the same at the moment, dont forget its been warm lately this does nowt for the appetite, what i do is watch her responce to food when i get little or sometimes none i reduce the food intake or have a fast day the bird obviously aint hungry so a fast day wont harm them.
