I couldn't find anything about it online and I'm not even sure birds do that, but that is what her behavior seems like. For the past few weeks instead of hopping onto my hand when I go to her cage, she will shy away from my hand at first, then come up to it and rub her head, bite my hand (very softly) and lift her leg up one at a time and gently touch my finger.
She is molting too, so could she just be giving me a hint that she wants me to preen her? If so, she is typically sensitive about me touching her head and I could use some tips on how to get her comfortable.
The main reason I am concerned is because it has been hard to give her the attention she needs when I can't pick her up. I don't want this to last so long she eventually becomes distant. If anyone has any advice it would be much appreciated! Thanks!
