Yes you guessed the question...
When is the first moult, Gomez is looking a little ratty and I am guessing he's having his first moult... would now be about right..?

Re: First moult....
yup! Mine are in the middle of their moulting cycle and others just finished. It's amazing how stunning they look once complete.

Ok... he was losing his feather round his beak and it looked funny, just like someone had glued his beak on. I now notice his feathers are looking a bit rough all over and he's looking quite a ratty little thing LOL!

Re: First moult....
If you don't want your bird to fly, remember that every time he/she moults, it is often a sign that he/she needs their wings clipped, if you choose to clip them. (vet told me this)
I usually leave a bowl with water and he cleans himself up and looks great.

Re: First moult....
Ok.. How long does a molt take...???
I'm wondering as Gomez is looking awful... I've heard of some birds having bad molts but Whooa!!
Most of the feathers are missing from his head, he's eating well, 'chatting' normally his usual self.
I'm just missing my little cherub faced blue boy... he's one ugly little bald, blue, lizard chicken right now.
