Young female Tail Feathers

[Steevo]

My young female African Grey Matilda is going through her 1st moult. It appears the silver tinged red feathers are been replaced with all red feathers. Is this normal ?

Cheers, Steve

I really don't know since I didn't have Timber when he had his first moult. What I do know is that I have had him for 8 years now, and his red feathers always come back red.

Their tail feathers are usually red, so it doesn't sound abnormal to me.

Usually they say nutrition is an issue, but I've had healthy parrots with some weird colored feathers before.  I think it just happens that way sometimes.  Guess a lot can go wrong when feathers are developing.
