It Just shocked me because they were not on the cage floor she was sitting on the door to her cage and then boom in less then 5 minutes there were 4 red feathers on the floor. I had just walked over to the kitchen which is next to the living room where her cage is, warmed up some food and got her water and when I returned I saw 4 bright red feathers on the floor, so It all had happened in those 5 minutes. It really just freaked me out. I have not seen her touch her tail feathers since, just normal everyday grooming. I was thinking of giving her a bath today, and letting her sit at the window to enjoy this sunny COLD day in PA. Thanks so much for your feed back!

This Morning was like every other, I opened her cage let Veah (short for Ne'Vaeh) out she quickly started talking and whistling, I gave her kisses. I walked into the kitchen to warm up some food and when I returned I was in shock to see 4 of her tail feathers on the floor. I have had Veah 3 years now and she is approx 5 years old. She has no history of plucking at all! We recently got a new bird last month. And she has seemed quite fond of him and like to sit on his cage with him. Though he seems a bit afraid of her (U. Cockatoo). She has been eating and acting normal. I checked the tips of the feathers and only one of the 4 had a speck of blood, I have never seen more them 1 feather on her whole body ever fall off at the same time. So now I am confused since only 1 had blood. She is on a pellet diet, and eats fresh fruits and veggies, she has many toys and I change them frequently, just bought her stackable cups which she did figure out she can stack them. She's allowed out of her cage all day long. I am home all day and spend plenty of time with her. She's on my lap as we speak, trying to pull out buttons from my keyboard. I am quite worried here. Thank you for any advice.
