are they supposed to do this?

[Ally]

just wondering if its right for stretches feathers to be coming in.. oddly. All the feathers coming in on his head are pointing to the left.. heres a pic, sorry for the poor quality. i dont have a camera , so im relying on my phone, :/ is this right?

oh and the bottom one is him getting some scratches, lol he loves under his wings to be rubbed and scratched

I've not had the pleasure of raising these babies, But it looks normal to me,

but hopefully some one who's raised them from tiny babies will chime in soon. and know more.

i was just wondering why they are coming in sideways. lol

 

[atvchick95]

does he lay on that side of his head more so than the other? well not "lay" but like lean up against his stuffed animal or you or anything like that?

maybe he has the human version of a cow lick ?

 

[Ally]

lol , its hard to tell, when he sleeps he pretty much just sprawls out, its too funny!

Thats really interesting. I havent seen feathers come in quite like that before. Normally they'd be coming straight back. Dont know that there is anything "wrong" but it might be worth calling and asking your vet about it. He sure is a cutie!!

 

[Ally]

she said she had not seen it before, but they have come in that way since day 1.. she says its odd, but not hurting anything.. nothing irregular except the direction they are coming in

It adds to his character and cuteness!

Ally, I thought he was a blue and gold macaw. Looks like red feathers, is that just your camera? Or is he a scarlet?
