Just a suggestion but perhaps the bird is lonely or bored.  The only feather
picking problem I had with my birds was my female canary after my male died. 
She pulled feathers and picked at herself for ages until I got another male. 
The parakeets I had didn't give her the type of company she craved....  
Does your bird spend lots of time alone?
