Quaker Parrot "Sunny"


Hello everyone. I have some questions. I was given a quaker parrot named "sunny" a week after my beloved 4 year old dove "bobby" passed away. many of you on here were such a help to me with his dying. anyway i was given this parrot that needed a home. the lady that gave it to me did not know about my recent loss but i knew this little guy needed somewhere he'd be loved. when i got him he was in molting on his chest and back. it's been 3 weeks that i've had him and he's been covered in the fluff but his actual feathers seem to be growing in very slowly. is this normal for parrots? i know with doves and pigeons it's a very quick process. he's becoming very affectionate and playful. when i got him he was very anti social and not coming out of the cage. he also must have never been allowed to fly around cause when he did come out he flew straight into everything and was just so out of breath. he now is free to fly all over my living room and has become a good little flyer. his dancing cracks me up too. i've went off topic but that happens on here lol. so if anyone could give me a few tips on his molting i'd appreciate it. thanks here's a couple pics of the little guy and by the way his leg tag says 97.
