Scales and feathers don't overlap - if T. rex loses feathers in its ontogeny, it would have a patchy appearance of bare skin. I personally would go for a more feathered adult, for 3 reasons: Feathers don't have the same thermal properties as mammalian fur. Especially the fuzz dinosaurs (including modern day ratites) have.
That would be the only reason. But at the moment there's zero evidence either way, and no actual studies on temperature tolerance that would imply babies had feathers and then lost them. The whole "feathery baby" meme originated to explain why T. rex, a member of a feathery lineage, does not have feathers.
Of course, the over-excitement about this new discovery dropped after a while and people started to take a more nuanced view of the situation that considering that their is no direct fossil evidence that T.Rex was feathered but there is direct evidence that he had scales through fossil skin impressions, most scientists have taken the stance that T.Rex and most other large dinosaurs were at ...
As for T. rex babies: Perhaps the young were born with a fluffy feather coat, a common phenomenon in birds, and then lost the majority of their feathers once they reached adulthood. “The bigger ...
Oct 11, 2024 · Baby T. rex hatched from eggs: Like all dinosaurs, T. rex began life by hatching from an egg. These eggs were likely about the size of a football. These eggs were likely about the size of a football. They were covered in feathers : Evidence suggests that baby T. rex had a coat of downy feathers, which may have helped keep them warm.
Feathers are items dropped by chickens and parrots, as well as tamed cats as morning gifts. Adult chickens drop 0–2 feathers upon death. The maximum is increased by 1 per level of Looting, for a maximum of 0–5 with Looting III. Parrots drop 1–2 feathers upon death. The maximum is increased by 1 per level of Looting, for a maximum of 1–5 with Looting III. A fox sometimes spawns holding ...

The dinosaurs were killed and interred quickly, and their soft tissues were locked in place. Many of these dinosaur skeletons are covered in feathers, including two tyrannosaurs – close cousins of T. rex –called Yutyrannus andDilong. This means that the ancestors of T. rex had feathers, which means T. rex probably did too.
