I haven't posted any videos of Boomer lately, so here goes. He loves head rubs so much that he resets his head in anticipation lol!

Boomer is hilarious! LOL. I watched a few of the videos. Looks like he won the battle with the snake. One question. When he's molesting the moose, is that a male thing or do the female do that also? My Sheldon will do that with a small ball.

He is much more friendly than Erik. If only Erik was as nice as Boomer...

He is such a character. I know i have said this before (i think?) but he is just a gorgeous sun conure and your photos and videos of him capture his beautiful feathers so well.

Lol does he ever whip his head around and nail you when you're doing that?? When Kumar feels "too good" or too excited, I'm usually rewarded with a nip

I thought that this action was a female thing to do but Boomer is DNA tested male. He never humps, so I guess there's no exclusivity to these actions!

Boomer is cool with me but he hates my ex with a passion lol! It's weird because my ex had helped raise him for the first 9 months of his life. So Boomer is not friendly to other people either I wish he was but that's my fault for not socializing him well enough.

YES! He's done that in the past, just out of the blue. I thought I touched a pin feather but it makes sense now that maybe he got over excited.

Erik attacks everyone apart from my mother and father, but he isn't hugely friendly with them either. He doesn't really like being touched.

Adorable! I met a sun conure/ jendy at Petco Sunday named Sundance. He was smashing his face against the glass for a head rub, and hanging upside down by one foot. I looked at Husband, he was mumbling something like no, couldn't hear him clearly. Second conure I've met and they are not only beautiful but so friendly and fun! They are rubbing off on me!
