As I sit here and type, my four month old sun conure, Pyros, nips at my fingers. My question is about him. He's been home for about a week now, though I've known him since he was a month old. He's a happy birdy, always dangling by one foot on the ceiling of his cage, rolling onto his tummy for belly rubs and chasing the cats. And, according to the vet, he's a perfectly healthy baby. But there's one thing he's been doing that concerns me.
I know head bobbing is normal for conures. I did a lot of research before I got Py and got to see a lot of sunnys bobbing it out. But Py's been doing a form of bobbing that's very odd. It's very rappid and, at the end, he strains his neck out a bit, opens his beak and makes a strange, rapsy sound. I don't know if it's baby behavior left over from his hand feeding days or if its a sickness or something...some advice please and thanks? :3
