To be safe I'd worm them back up for another two weeks(75F to 85F) just to make sure that male sheds and cleans the gut out. I don’t feed my Hondo's chicks so I don’t know how well feather digest and what its poop looks like so can't help you there. Besides the feathers, the poop looks fairly standard to what I see during brumation. Not sure what you're looking to do with them but if you intend to breed them you don’t have to cool Hondurans if you didn't know that. I fed all mine this past winter(but reduced the light) and they did fine breeding this past spring. Most guys just cool them so they don’t have to spend extra $$$ feeding them for the 3 months. I will end up cooling my this winter because of that. I hope this helps.
Craig
