Ive been finding like 2 -3 of these kind of feathers laying around the past few days
They are from the Blu's back area between the wings.
It's hard to get a real good picture but this is the tip. It doesn't look broken or bloody.
I wasn't really too concerned until just now, when Blu was hanging out on me. All of a sudden I saw some down feathers poking out!
I'm very worried that he might be plucking. He does seem to preen that area quite a bit.
But then 5 minutes later when I put him back in his area (when his body was not all contorted anymore, from trying to eat my jeans & belt) his feathers looked pretty normal
*Please excuse the mess, I am going to clean up after he finishes eating. Also sorry the pictures are not that great. I am freaking out a bit and tried to get pics as fast as possible.
Does it looks like he could be plucking?
