why does my african grey have 1 grey feather amongst his red tail ones?

Question: my african greys tail is pure red but he has one whole feater that is grey wy is this

Answer: Actually that is considered to be a 'Blue" feather not a grey one. It is common with CAG's (Congo African Grey) that have what is called a "Blue" mutation. This is considered to be a Good Thing! As well as being rare. Enjoy your CAG for his new found rarity! In Africa it is considered to be good luck to see an African Grey in the wild with a blue tail.
