It’s there, I can see it! It’ll grow in the real “Afro” punk-rocker feathers in the next weeks.

They have their chick down afro from birth, I agree with huffleclaw.
This one looks bearded to me, because typically you can even see the beard on day olds!
What a cutie. I love polish

And the difference between bearded and non-bearded is just the fluff on the cheeks, also known as a beard.

The beard will grow in, under the beak. It actually looks like a beard

Such a beautiful polish how old?

It's the BEST THING EVER when they start feathering out.
Exhibit A: 5 week old Zoe!
