Their beaks are pliable near the corners to help them show a small range of emotions. They also emote with the feathers around the top and back of the head. These feathers tend to grow longer than those elsewhere on the body, and sometimes have a slightly different pigmentation. Jedoa pluck or trim these feathers into different styles for self expression. Jedoa tails typically face down and are of medium to long length. | ||
They | Differences between the sexes are very minute. It can be difficult to tell them apart. They aren’t typically offended if someone makes a mistake! Male Jedoa have two long, flashy, brightly colored tail feathers called the “chaahk” or “quill”. The quill’s color is the same as the male’s pigmentation and is typically longer and thinner than the other tail feathers. These quill feathers will bleed more than other feathers if broken and such injury is regarded as semi-serious. The feather will grow back in time. Female Jedoa are typically taller than males. | ||
Short or upright tails are less common. | |||
