I don't know if this is the right place guys, sorry if it is not.
So on Yoshi's new back feathers he has a lot of stress bars. (gee wonder why? :D) My question is, these should go away with the next molt right? Sadly when i look at them I think of how sick he was. :'( I know I should just be happy he isn't anymore but it is just a constant reminder. I am hoping these will molt away.

She should molt them out, I know the feeling jax has them so bad on his wings still. But each new feather he gets makes me happy because so far all the new ones are stress bar free :)

I agree. When I got Jadie, she was covered in them. Her whole tail.......they were alll gone at her next molt. For now, Yoshi can wear tham as a badge of courage. Thats one tough little quake you have there. smitten.gif

i agree with jadez! She sure has been through alot and most lil fiddies probably wouldn't have been cared for well enough to get feathers back!!! she should be proud of what she's done and in just a few months i'm sure she willl grow in new ones and be back to her shiny healthy self :)
