She doesn&#8217;t look any different though apart from her head. Her head is a mass of pins and she reminds me of a porcupine.<\/p>\n<p>Freckles is losing her baby feathers and growing in her adult feathers. I am picking up her white feathers but she doesn&#8217;t look any different. Rusty isn&#8217;t losing feathers yet as she is still growing some of her baby feathers. Her head feathers have filled in since we have had her.<\/p>\n<p>Pebbles quills being white don&#8217;t really show up on a photograph but what look like white feathers on her head are actually white pins, she has a spiky head at the moment.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_17644\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a
