Welcome to the forums @igormkd! I would suggest your baby's tail feathers have fallen out naturally and will grow back soon. What's your little one's name by the way? Such a beautiful birdie! 😍
 
He is preening himself. Preening is cleaning and smoothing out feathers. Birds do a lot of this. Just keep an eye out for over preening, also known as plucking, which is a destructive habit. Looks pretty normal to me.

Room is 26 celsius (warm) i have air conditioner i put it only for him because nights was 18 celsius, i also have air purifier with hepa filter, and im thinking to get air humidifier idk which one but if is needed i'll put it too. I also order some new toys waiting them to arrive, and this year maybe i'll get a larger cage for him like this.

He's a great-looking little dude.
About the tail feathers... what Manuka said! It took my clumsy, reckless bird a couple of years to grow a decent tail!
Glad you two are here.
 
Re-evaluated the pics you posted. Please take a few full front pictures of your IRN, so we can clearly see his breast/chest area.
