I think your little sweetheart's feathers are fairly normal for a young bird her age. They are probably in the midst of being moulted out for new adult feathers, and the older ones will generally show signs of wear as the pigmentation breaks down before they're replaced. Also, even on new feathers the pigment can be damaged by the oils in our hands. You should SEE my lorikeet's feathers, they look terrible on the one side where he snuggles up under my chin every night and where I scritch him, but they're perfect on the other side! Don't forget to tell us her name, will you? She is a gorgeous girl!

Just thought I'd hop on in and say hello. Yer conure is gorgeous! Babies tend to have darker feathers than adults and once they molt out, their colors should shine.
