Default Mikey Blue

Well, since someone was nice enough to ask after my beautiful boy on another bird site, I thought I'd take a few pix tonight to share. Hope you like them :-): He and Ceilidh were playing on the hoopball and Mikey was eating mac nuts and pretending to be a bat....

Mikey's wings were absolutely butchered by the breeder when she sent him here. We'd asked he not be clipped, so I don't know why she did.. Worst clip I've ever seen. What you see now are what's left of those clipped feathers--they haven't molted out, yet. When they do, the new ones won't be clipped. Despite having a few old flights left, he can still fly about 10 feet. Amazing, really--he never fledged, AND he's usually a floor chicken and only flies when my eldest son gets too close. Something about Dan frightens him, but none of us really knows what it is.
