Ok, I got lucky on the passion wing and it mutated when I got the adult one. It looked like the right bird in the third row here

I loved it. So I grew it into a senior which is obviously tufted too. Surprisingly though all the shiny colors are gone and it looks like the old version again. Just with the extra tail.

Is that normal? Do the shiny colors only come with the adult version? I thought that was part of the mutation bonus. Now it seems like my bird got old and grey again.....

Edit:
Ok I just compared it to a normal senior passion wing. There is a slight difference in colors and of course the tail:

It is however still a big difference to the adult version.
So:
- Would someone mind posting a normal adult passion wing?
- And does anyone know if only the adults are bright and this is not a tufted trait then?

Won't be growing senior tufted birds anymore then....
He might also get more lively if you take him to Ferasa.
I already made that thread the other day
But...pining for the fjords, what kind of talk is that?!
I know they are taken in the dark but that's not the issue. The situation is the same in daylight.

I very much remember my bird looking the same. It was the adult version however and the colors faded when I grew it to senior.
So, I'm wondering if you grew your bird from adult to senior too or if your senior actually looked like the picture you posted above?

So you are saying that you did not do any raising on the bird after it had mutated? Coz if you did (and grew it so senior) it's not the patch that messed things up but the growing.

On the other hand, my fledgling Passion Wing is apparently just a regular type, but has all the tufts.
I'm confused O.O
Apparently so is your bird...

Same issue here as well, had two tufted passion wings go from the bright fuschia color, back to the dull lavender one once they hit senior
