Well, Many times most of us are blogging for more than one blog or website and out of those you wish to transfer feed for only one blog then this trick may be useful to you.
1. Sign in to your feedburner account.
2. Click the title of the feed you want to send to someone else in the My Feeds list, and then click "Transfer Feed..." You will then be asked to enter the email address of the publisher to whom you want to transfer this feed.

1. Sign in to your feedburner account.
2. Click the title of the feed you want to send to someone else in the My Feeds list, and then click "Transfer Feed..." You will then be asked to enter the email address of the publisher to whom you want to transfer this feed.
3. Enter the email address and submit the form.
FeedBurner will contact the publisher and provide a link he must visit in order to sign into his own FeedBurner account and then accept the transfer. The transfer occurs immediately after he complete this process. Feed transfer request emails are only valid for 72 hours. If the transferee doesn't accept the request within 72 hours, you will have to issue a new request. Make sure the transferee checks their spam/junk folder for this message.
Unfortunately, transferring a feed that participates in FeedBurner Ad Network (FAN) is slightly complicated; this constraint prevents the loss of important financial data associated with the original owner's account. Feedburner has recommended the following procedure to handle FAN feed transfers between publisher accounts:
1. The "original owner" should enter a new feed address (the part following feeds.feedburner.com/, known as a URI) for the FeedBurner feed they would like to transfer to another party.
2. Then the "new owner" should set up a feed using the same source feed as the feed being transferred, enter the feed address that was being used previously by the "original owner."
In this way a new FeedBurner feed is created that effectively clones the original one and allows any subscribers of the original one to transition smoothly to the new feed. For better results the time between completing step 1 and step 2 should be as close as possible because it is a time during which the feed will be unavailable
Let me know if you are facing any issue regarding the feed transfer.
