Yes juveniles don't have these feathers. He looks older to me also.
Did they give you any hatch date paperwork etc?
No he didn't have paper work I asked but said he was hatched last summer thinking 6 to 8 month.
But I agree I think he may be older than that. I had read that they don't get the colors in until after 1 year.
It's okay he is a good boy. Needs training. I will work with him. Not a needy bird at all. He had a really good 1st night.
I thought he would be waking me up early (we are not early people :glowlol
but he didn't make any noise until I started talking to him this morning.
He doesn't know what toys are or perches. He is just staying on 1 perch or going round the cage on the bars.
Any suggestions on how old you think he is?
