Juv molt finished
Three of our first ever male juvenile Gouldians have finished their juvenile molt. This is a pic of one of them. He is five months old in this pic. There were 4 males in the first clutch. Three of them molted faster than the fourth. The fourth one will take another 4-8 weeks to finish molting.

Awesome bird! He's even got that red line separating his purple breast from the yellow, which is highly sought after for shows.

I had no idea about that red line being desirable. I will have to check the other birds to see if they have it.Icearstorm wrote: a_gouldian

Yes; it tends to go hand in hand with a more intense yellow color, which is also desirable. And it's also somewhat rare now, so try to keep a few in the breeding stock if you ever plan to show.
