Gilbert won’t gobble

[GilbertsHuman]

Gilbert hasn’t gobbled since molting. We have managed to get one gobble a few weeks ago and it sounded terrible. He’s eating and drinking. Color is pale. He’s picking himself a lot and he’s shedding what I can only describe as dandruff in heavy volumes. Any thoughts?

All his energy is going into feather regrowth. Some protein supplementation may help to give him a boost. The 'dandruff' is most likely shed pin feather sheaths.

What do you recommend for supplementing his protein?
