YogiB Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Yogi's tail feathers are a dark red, and there is not a lot of red like I see in many of the pictures of baby CAG's. They are more a mix of dark gray and dark red. His beak is totally black which should mean he is a CAG and not a TAG. (Personally it doesn't matter to me what he is, I love him anyway!) I was told that his feathers will probably change to more red when he molts. I've looked at lots of pics of tail feathers and I do see that there is some variety out there. Some babies are vibrant red when very young, some more muted. Any ideas? Thanks, Leah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YogiB Posted May 3, 2008 Author Share Posted May 3, 2008 Wow, what beautiful birds! Yogi is all gray except for the tail thing, his eyes are just starting to lighten a little bit. As soon as I can I'll have to post a pic of the tail and see what you all think. Thanks, Leah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovemyGreys Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 Young CAG's have dark grey tips on their tail feathers.He will molt out his baby tail feathers & these will be replaced by the brighter red ones you see.If the beak is black then he is a CAG. Definitely looks CAG in your avatar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 Yogi will have that bright red tail soon enough and he definitely looks Cag from your avatar. I look forward to seeing more pics of Yogi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
