baby macaw 6 weeks old feather help

I have a 6 week old macaw named "Gator". He is doing great. My question is his feaherrs are coming in witht he sheath on them and have been for quite some time, should I be helping the feathers come out by playing with tthe sheath to loosen them? some of them are very long with just a bit of feather sticking out the end. I don't ant to do anything to hurt him but it seems like I read something about helping them along since he has no nest mates to help them along. Just thought I would ask before I started to do this. Thanks. John
