A General Question

[Morgan]

What age do Bourkes have their first molt? Can't seem to find this little fact online anywhere.

It depends I found based on diet, who is the cagemate (is it an older opposite sex mate?), what age were they moved to a new home after fledging, any stressors (in the home, cagemates bothering them, etc) all these can effect the time of the first molt. In Bourkes, they molt sooner than Linnies, I would say in the 4-6 months range being the average.
