Two Frizzled Younglings -- unknown gender?

I would guess 8-10 weeks old. They look fully feathered. Definitely over 7 weeks IMO. Not very old though.. I would think the oldest they could be would be 3 months maybe (12 weeks)

Okay, thanks Aoxa. Very helpful!


Some more updated pics of my babies another 4 days on.


(yes, I do take a lot of photos, lol. I'm learning photography, so I shoot everything).














Little Icey's rusted feather tips are actually fading now, they've paled down a lot since the day I got her. And Lachova is just gorgeous.
I generally leave them to their own devices in my backyard jungle during the day and at night, I handle them a bit with the lights on whilst they're roosting, so they can learn I'm not going to hurt them. I also spend time hanging out with them just talking to them and touching them gently. They're both pretty nervy about female, I get the idea the previous owner never touched them until the day they said "want them?" and stuffed them in a box.

They are completely adorable! I am really hoping ONE of my three will be frizzled. Their feathers look strange, but not like this :/

Whatchya think? She has phoenix in her background. She(or he) is 17 days old today. This picture was taken on her/his 14th day.

I think it certainly looks promising!!! Her feathers do stick up a bit don't they?
Looks frizzley to me....


Keep an eye on her, let us know how you went and what she turns out like

That is good to hear! They are weird. The feathers don't lay flat, but they don't curl up either. I'll let you know The other two are feathering in slower, and also look promising
