she has had those "spiny" little feather for about a month. They have finally began to mature into real feathers. I'm so HAPPY that my little female isn't going to be a flying oval anymore.
Just FYI - those "spiny" little feathers are called "pin feathers". :)

motivation ceases to be a problem when the soul moves in the right direction.
