The first step id to establish why this is happening. Mainly is there a medical issue or is it behaviour related? Medival issues include infections, mites, vitamin a deficiency etc and these are best ruled out by a vet. If there is no medical reason it is likely self plucling due to stress, or plucking by a cage mate. In such instance you need to look at the environment and address stressors such as other birds, draught, noise, dirty conditions, lack of clean water, poor air quality etc.
