Thanks everyone :D It turned out to be three ingrown feathers :D With everything i've been through with her, it makes me fear the worst. Plus its been a bad day, was supposed to go trail ridding tomar with a friend but my gelding threw a shoe and the farrier cant get out til monday, then on the way to the vet the jeep broke down, i was two hours late, at least they worked me in and now my stress is gone knowing shes fine :D Vet says he sees this mostly in Macaws but occaisionally on other species, he pulled the feathers out and everthing should be fine.

Thanks Mare, i am now in a parking lot an hour away from home, its dark out. Rome is falling asleep and im sure Roc is at home wondering what is going on with dinner, poor little guy.
 
Sorry to hear you're having a difficult time. I was wondering several months ago if it's possible to a bird to have an ingrown feather. This is good information and thanks for sharing.
