This is called "preening". When birds grow new feathers, they start to grow "pins", which are little quills with tinny blood vessels. When the feather grew all the way, the blood vessel retracts and the remaining's dry off. Usually birds are able to get rid of most of their pins by themselves but the ones in their tails, head and neck. In the wild, other birds would help them, in captivity, they need help. It's very satisfying and a great way to bond with your birb

Owner of 7 birds here! This is called a keratin sheath! It’s pretty like the equivalent to bubble wrap on a delicate package when the birds are growing new feathers it starts with having blood and it’s important that the new stem of the feather doesn’t break so that’s what the keratin sheath is for. It also helps the feather maintain shape most importantly it helps keep the epidermal appendages strong, tough, flexible and elastic. If ur bird lets u do this they trust you and if they really like you they will try to preen you themselves Edit: I made this comment a while ago but I wanna thank everyone for the kind comments i love to see people getting introduced about how birds work even in a little aspect. I’m going through school to work in avian science and all of your sweet comments give me so much confidence it may not seem like a big deal to you but it means so much to me so thank you❤️

this is called "preening" which birds do to themselves or to other birds usually as a bonding ritual. new feathers form by popping up as "blood feathers" where a capsule made of ceritin (same stuff your nails are made of) forms to help safely make the new feather. after its formed the blood and veins withdraw from the pin feather and it dries up like you see in the video. the bird knows exactly when to preen these feathers and it feels good to them hence why its a bonding ritual

well that feather for a brief brief moment is maybe a pin feather… but pin feathers are usually smaller feathers that are prickly like a porcupine. while all feathers at some point have a blood supply the larger feathers of the wings and tail are quite dangerous growing in as they can bend or break completely and the bird can quickly bleed to death if it isn’t pulled out (think huge straw-like needle stuck in your vein …dripping blood quickly out of your body with little to no way to coagulate…a needle that size could even bleed out a human rather quickly). it is a major fear for most bird owners

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints. The bible is no old book. You have to really let Christ open your eyes; to see the world in shambles. Many people say it's a religion to lock up people in chains, and say it's a rule book.. why? Because people hate hearing the truth, it hurts their flesh, it's hurts their pride, it's exposes on what things have they done..people love this world so much, s*x, money, power, women, supercars.. things of this world. Still trying to find something that can fill that emptiness in your heart. You can't find that in this world.. only in Christ, the bible is no chains, it's a chainbreaker.

That is a very healthy/happy bird. You can always tell by the feathers.

[@ariannasantina]

yup. aside from even the obvious like birds overplucking or chewing their feathers when stressed or anxious, their feathers are so much more glossy whn they are healthy and happy too in genral ..a bird will also show 'stress bars' on its feathers (they look like darb brownish horizontal lines) if its been thru periods of physical stress or malnourishment during that molting period. (they will go away when the bird molts out IF the problem is fixed though and the bird gets healthy and happy again) i had a lovebird baby (still have him, he's just an adult now, 2y/o, not a baby anymore) who i handraised and his first set of baby feathers had lots of stress bars because his mama-bird wasnt feeding him enough :( (hence the reason why i had to pull him and handraise him) he was the youngest of 4 babies on a first time mama and he was almost a full week younger than his siblings so he was a lot smaller and kept getting pushed to the back of the line when mama and daddy were feeding their young the older siblings would kinda fight for attention and climb all over eachother and peep loudly and they were old enough to be more persisten (almost a week old) whereas he was newborn hatchling and they are just squirmy lil helpless things who can barely move or lift their head , at that age the mom mostly just shoves food into their mouth but she was distracted with all her older babies. So yea i realized mom wasnt feeding him enough and puled him at literally like 2 days old (they will die quickly if not fed enough around the clock at that age- they eat every 2 hours) but so yea he had a rough start and when his feathers came in i noticed he had all these lines on them so thats when i learned about stress bars. He had his first big molt around 7 months though and all the lines went away. he's a beautiful little pied dutch blue lovebird now (you can see him in some videos on my youtube channel, along with his siblings. his name is Twilight- he's the one i raised from 2 days old. the rest of his siblings i also handraised but at a more NORMAL age you usually pull them to handraise around 3 or 4 weeks more just so they get used to and bond with humans. as opposed to where he NEEDED to be pulled and handraised or he woud have died :( )

That thing that the person took off of the bird is called a pin feather. In the wild, other birds will take these kinds of feathers off. Pin feathers develop for pretty much every single feather. Most pin feathers a bird can take off by itself. But when the feathers are on the head or like this, really far back on the tail, it requires assistance.

Growing new feathers is somewhat unpleasant for a bird. Being able to remove the feather sheaths is a HUGE sign of trust from your bird.

[@Sillylittlewilly]

Dawg can you shut up

[@kitkat19993]

The “chomps” always are. Ever have an “ingrown hair” before where it feels significantly better once you get the hair to break free from your skin? Similar aspect with birds and their feathers. Birds go through a bonding community effort or individual act called “preening”. Their follicles will build up overtime with these casings as well as when a new feather is grown it is encased to protect it. New feathers will eventually bust through the casing but still requires to be “chomped” to feel comfortable and have the feather back in all of its glory. When a bird is sick they’ll skip this maintenance and birds outside of a community will require human help ever so often. Birds that are experiencing trauma or anxiety will over do the preening part and loose it’s feathers. Regardless, preening is like a loved one giving you back scratches. Birds that allow their owners to do it have a deep bond with them to handle something that causes the bird much discomfort. The chomp is very much personal 😂
