Tricky Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Since growing her feathers back following a moult my Mrs Pepperpot does not seem to have grown all of rear end feathers back properly. There are no bald patches around the vent its just that some of the feathers look like quills if that makes sense. Any ideas? Its been a while since I did a post and Bon Bon has since departed so Mrs P is on her own.....for now Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 The quills are the new feather shafts growing through. She should be back in full feather soon Her tails and wing feathers are usually the last to grow back. Sorry to hear about Bon Bon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky Posted April 24, 2010 Author Share Posted April 24, 2010 Thnaks Christian,she moulted over winter when all the snow was about so she seems to be taking her time.All other feathers have been back to normal for a long time now but I guess she is getting a bit older now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
