Heā€™s still moulting !
Now his head seems to have finished and we are onto his wingsā€¦ Iā€™m glad he dropped one of the ones with the stress bar. Iā€™m guessing that may have been when he was moved into the incubator as itā€™s near the tip - early growth ?
I find lots of various sized feathers every morning, he often quickly stabs at his wings right now, I expect its uncomfortable and itchy with the new feathers coming. Iā€™ve never seen him pull any colour ones out. (Just the grey under fluff during heatwave)

Ooooh wow! That edge is so pretty :)
Thank you Cottonoid, Iā€™ve told him for you šŸ˜„
We had a lovely shower today he got thorough wet and I saw at least 3 new feathers through. Hope the next ones are as vibrant.
