Hi Aiki. Yes they are unopened feather shafts.... thanks for clarifying this. Our chick has less of them than the one in the picture and his head is smoother than that one also with not as much down. I'll post a pic if I can work out how to do it. He stands up quite a lot now and flaps his wings but he's still a bit wobbly on his feet although he's got huge chunky legs...
