Still learning about my OWA's behavior so I wanted to ask here.....
Today Sammy has laid his beak between my fingers. I just rubbed his beak between my thumb and index finger. First he was on his cage and walked to me standing with my hand on the lower side of the cage. I thought it was a fluke. Like he was wanting a head scratch but he didn't try to move my hand. the second, a couple hours later sitting in my lap. This is the first time he has done this. Blew my mind. My question, is this something parrot are known to do regularly? I ask because I keep hearing so many things about behavior , bonding, obsession, and temperament if close mating time. I wanna make sure it don't mean something to do with sexual maturity behavior. Pass couple of days he has been chewing on my fingers and licking my hand. Not aggressively. Is this normal "safe to handle" behaviors or do I need to start being worried about him turning mean.
He will grab a finger on each hand and flip onto his back in my lap to get my fingers. Lol
Sometimes he will just hold it, slowly adding pressure. I eventually have to blow in his face
to make him release.
