Banny can often be found either sitting on the feathered back of Shorty or helping pick dirt out of her feathers and beak.
“She lets me do her feathers, but even then it’s just tolerated,” said Huggins. “This she seems to enjoy.”
The two birds got to know each other at the dinner table of Huggins’ house. Shorty would sit with Huggins as she worked while Banny joined her daughter. Eventually they started interacting more and more.
Huggins says it’s bizarre that Shorty tolerates Banny, considering she’s often aggressive with other animals. During her grooming, the chicken’s eyes will often close in a peaceful state.

Wow..I didn't that it was possible for a chicken to be friend with a cockatiel..

and I also wish that was the case with Cookie and Bak-Bak (a chick). Bak-Bak hates any parrot and tries to peck them. Cookie also hates Bak-Bak but she's also kinda curious to what Bak-Bak is.
