The FDA can’t even regulate the quality of imported FOOD grade wheat gluten which has killed thousands of animals across the USA and now they want to take on the task of regulating the vitamins, herbal supplements and massage oils that have been around for decades.

Question by I’d like to Know…..: Why does our cockatiel have a bald spot running down the back of his head?
Hi, my husband and I just rescued a cockatiel from this family. He was never taken to the vet, he never had toys in his cage, and the lady said that her children would knock down the cage with him in it. We are taking him to the veterinarian tomorrow, although he has this bald spot on the back of his head. The past owner said that he rubs his head against the cage. We are very worried and so upset he was not taken good care of! Does anyone know what this bald spot might be caused from?
I have a male cockatiel. He has been with no other cockatiels or birds as far as I know. He is a lutino cockatiel.
His past owner said that he didn’t have his bald spot when she got him, but that in the past months it has become bald. Could the hair missing from the bald spot grow back in that area?
Best answer:
Answer by Steve ‘art I suspect that you have a yellow or lutino cockatiel.
Most of the paler coloured cockatiels have a bald spot under their crest and under the wings.
If you have a grey it may be a female that has been with a male for a while, the males sometimes pluck feathers from the back of the females head during mating.
I own a pet store and have been breeding these birds for hand rearing for twenty years.

Question by His Dudeness: How long after taking beat blockers does hair loss slow down?
Just stopped taking them a month ago and was wondering when (if at all) the hair loss and thinning will stop/slow down?
Best answer:
Answer by Roach I’ve been taking Bystolic 5mg 1x a day for the last 5 months and I keep my hair about a half inch fade on the top and I lose less hair than before I started taking beta-blockers when I had long hair.
When my hair was long, (to my shoulders) I lost handfulls everytime I showered. Was your mother’s father bald?
