My RFM has a peculiar habit of grabbing her tail feathers with one leg while balancing precariously on the other while eating mainly but also does it at other times. She is very well adjusted, a pure delight and always happy. No issues whatsoever. I was just wondering if anyone else has observed that in their birds.:laughing12:

Cookie does almost the same thing! she will either grab her flight feathers, or tails feathers, bend them around so they are near her head and sit there preaning or eating!

I've never seen any of mine do that. I'd love a picture!
