Yes, owlets appear puffy before they develop feathers due to their fluffy down feathers that provide insulation and warmth. This downy layer gives them a round, soft appearance, making them look much larger than they actually are. As they grow and begin to develop their adult feathers, they will gradually lose this puffy appearance.

Owlets typically grow their feathers within 6 to 10 weeks after hatching. Initially, they are born with a soft down, and as they mature, they gradually develop their adult feathers through a process called molting. By the time they are ready to fledge, usually around 10 to 12 weeks, they will have most of their feathers.
