I'm not used to seeing these types of feathers on the floor in my home. They come from Emma my african grey. One I found on Tuesday and the other on Wed. I'm wondering..

This was a normal growing out of flight feathers right? Not a pluck? :huh:

Just need to be sure.

Yep, normal molting!

A few weeks ago Pebbles my conure dropped FOURTEEN feathers on the floor in one day! So yeah, don't worry about it. Just normal molting and those feathers don't look chewed on or anything

Seems pretty normal to me. I find a few stray feathers like that from my Gray's and my Macaw.

Thanks Heather and Melissa. I feel much better having posted on here. You just never know, I'd hate to be blind sighted. :hug8:

Danita · 5/27/10

look just like Boogie feathers - he usually drops his flights one at a time, sometimes 2 or 3 days in a row and will often drop a couple of the medium sized ones at the same time

give Emma and Sachi scritches from Auntie gg

:hug8:

They look as if they are molted feathers. They usually lose one on one side one day and then the opposite one the next day. I don't see anything that looks suspiscious.
