Well now that lil Frankie is moulting he is releasing his beautiful feathers and welcoming new ones.....!!
But, the other day I noticed a new tail feather that looks a little bit different....
It has yellow on the tip and Im starting to wonder if he is pied?

He is adorable Rachel. :heart:

I have been browsing how to tell if a Sun is Pied, I haven't found much information at all (only photos), but it is said that “usually pied means completely yellow with little to no green at all”

This is a Pied Sun:

That's a heavy pied. In order to be a visual pied. One flight or tail feather MUST be a completely clear (all yellow or white) No green or blue. Frankie looks to be a beautiful cozy sun conure!

Well, Nicky has 2 tail feathers like that, the 2nd from the end on each side. I don't think it's unusual, as I've seen it often. But YOUR fid is adorable!:marlenesmile:

I don't know whether he is pied but he is CUTE CUTE CUTE!!!! :hug8:


Archy used to do that when he was little with a super cozy robe I had, but somehow made his was into one of the seams, found a hole and got caught between two pieces of fabric. Sigh. He ended up being fine, but he won't go inside a sleeve anymore!
