The keet is now ten weeks and one day old (or two months and eleven days; or 71 days total) and these next two photographs were taken today...
By comparison to other images of keets I am thinking that this keet is far behind in its development. As you can see it still has most of its "baby" fluff on its head.
Is there anything I should be concerned about?
I decided to still give it its starter feed (which it now goes mad for) as well as the wild bird seeds, just in case it still needs it to develop since it appears to be about two weeks behind.
Am I on the right track?
[I just want to add that I also give it cooked egg almost every day, along with cheese which I use for treats. And it also gets bits of cooked fish when available, and ham.]
