His feathers are looking decent considering he's been in a breeding pen for the last two months and has been in a molt as a result. Today was wash & oil day - he prefers the sink over the tub as he can keep an eye on himself in the mirror. In this photo he is still wet, having not yet been blow dried.
I try to gently soak and wash the feathers every other week if needed. I only blow dry the ones that get wet close to his body if it is cooler outside, then give a light oil to the tailfeathers and end of saddles - not enough to goop things up but enough to protect.
Beautiful Roo!
