Coconut grew a tail LOL

[Tropical]

Suddenly Coconut has a tail (he broke off all of his baby tails feathers except for one feather... that is all he had left as his tail LOL) and the new tail feathers are solid gray (no more yellow bars underneath)... and suddenly he sprouted tons of new flight feathers at lightning speed... and I'm noticing his cheeks look more yellow lately?

When Coconut stands next to Rascal... you can see he still has a very long way to go... but I think he's starting to morph!

Looking back at old pics/videos of Coconut... I see his face is indeed changing into more yellow coloring and his orange circles getting more vibrant

Since I look at him everyday I didn't even notice that he's starting to transition until I looked at old pics LOL.... and that's when I was like WOW!... he's changed sooo much in appearance!

You can see in this old video of him singing up a storm he looked very different... his face hardly had any yellow couple months ago! [ame="https://youtu.be/ne73tR-ch94"]Coconut chattering & singing up a storm - YouTube[/ame]

Just about every day now, I see more yellow in BB's face But his sleeves still refuse to grow! I can see a "little" progress..maybe 3/4 of an inch on each of his arms.
But his doc did say,he is still doing his baby/adult molt..still has "bars" on some tail feathers.

Beebs old then 'Nut,yet 'Nut is flying already. C'mon BB,get on the stick will ya??? lol.

Juliet, how is coconut and his screaming gone? has he calmed down any?

It might be that 'Nut is older than I realize... not sure. The breeder told me he was about 3 1/2 months old when I got him... breeder didn't know exact hatch date which is a bummer. I know some tiels just mature later... that is prob a good thing... BB is aging slower

It's awesome... I am not having nearly as much screaming problems with 'Nut past few days... I'm very happy about it! I actually have started doing something a little different about a week ago being that now when it's Coconut's time to be inside the cage I cover front of cage so he's can't see me sitting in living room with Rascal anymore... this didn't work before... but seems it has FINALLY started working as now he no longer paces back and forth in front of cage door trying to come out screaming his head off. Cage is next to porch sliding glasss door so he has nice view of my backyard... but it seems this new "setup" needed time to start working!

They BOTH scream their heads off when it's dinner time though LOL... like dogs... they are monsters eager to come eat with me... they KNOW when it's dinner time hehe

My 3 (hatching date starting 8-10-16) are flying. What's more they are able to land where they want on at least 2nd or 3rd try.

Middle hatched bird (Mango) favorite landing area is on top of my head. I guess my hair gives him something to grab hold of.
So far they aren't making a lot of noise. With all the Tiels in the same general area it's hard to tell who is making what noise.

Wow you have a lot of birds! I would seriously lose my mind with all that noise and would not be able to handle it that's for certain. Do you breed birds which is why you have so many? I know many people on this forum have lots of birds. I admire your ability to have so many birds... I could never do it!

I hope to get a GCC day but right now I have my hands completely full with just 2 tiels hehe

... and today Rascal is being the bad one screaming his head off... so now 'Nut is inside the cage singing his heart out while Rascal sleeps on my leg.
