Her tail feathers look somewhat eroded, just as if lice were at work there. Check carefully allover while using a head light and treat her thoroughly.

I’ve actually checked for lice. Her feathers were damaged when my dad put her, Rocky and the mother in a small cage while I was gone. And her tail would rub against the wire and make it look all ragged (plus momma bird is kind of a bully now for some reason). They’ve been moved to where I’m living and are now living in the run here. But I’ll make sure and check again. Both the mother and the other bird here show no sign of feather erosion.

Update- Sundae is indeed a cockerel. I saw the saddle and baby sickle feathers yesterday(not to mention the crowing this morning).
