Last year&#8217;s two girls Gold and Storm are in full moult. Gold&#8217;s explosive tail feathers have returned to normal but now the feathers on her breast and necklace are looking loose. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Storm is looking shabby and she has white patches of pins on her shoulders. Her leg feathers are patchy too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cloud is only showing a small amount of feathers dropping pretty much like Storm last year but Mango seems to being having a proper grown up moult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sugar and Salmon don&#8217;t look any different although I have picked up some feathers from Salmon. Dot is losing a few feathers but not too bad as yet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Autumn had pins on her head but they seem to have opened up now and she looks really good. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure
