Sophie is a white capped pionus parrot. She is an only bird and can clearly not pluck her own head. Is this normal?

Birdygirl: Is Sophie molting? Sounds like it.

She is molting. So this is normal? She's never done this before.

Rio has a small bald spot on her too and I think it is due to her molting. If the bald spot on Sophie doesn't go away in a few weeks though, I would take her to the vet and see if it's something else.
