First Feather

[Dlynjen]

Tookie has finally lost her first tail feather.. But it has a small patch of blood in it.. I hope I'm not over reacting, especially since she is molting right now. Is this a normal molted feather or a plucked feather?

It looks like a regular molted feather to me. Once in awhile, a feather might have some blood on it if it was bumped, etc. As long as your bird isn't bleeding, I wouldn't worry.

I've never had either of my girls drop feathers with any sort of blood on or in it.. This is good to know for future reference. Thank you.
