Pocky has this weird thing going on. He's currently molting so a lot of his feathers are just falling off.
However, when a medium sized feather (such as a wing feather) or a long feather (tail feather) falls off he picks it up and holds it like a sword. its actually kind of cute. He'll chase after it if it flies away and he'll clean the feather part and chew on the shaft tip part until its almost completely clear. Afterwards he'll just hang on to it for a little bit then give it to me and waddle away.
Is this normal? It's not like he's pulling them out on purpose.
