Today I put Fumbles in her cage like I normally do because I had to grab something outside and I didn't want to leave her unattended. I was only gone for about 10 minutes and when I came back I noticed one of her long tail feathers on the bottom of the cage along with a few drops of blood. I took her out to make sure she wasn't still bleeding, in which she wasn't and put bird styptic powder on just in case. She seems fine right now and not doing anything out of the ordinary but I don't know what to do. I don't even know how this happened she doesn't have anything she could hurt herself on in the cage. A couple of hours ago we were flight training her inside with the harness on and she was heading for a spot in the kitchen where she shouldn't have been so my husband tried to catch her mid flight. He accidently grabbed the tail a little but not hard and then caught her feet/let her land on him. I don't know if that could have affected anything because it was a couple hours ago but who knows. She has a vet apt on Tuesday but I don't know what to do until then. Here is a picture of the broken tail feather. I also had a pic of the blood in the cage and the front and back of the tail.
I appreciate any advice.
