morty has started to preen himself while sitting on my shoulder, knee or arm.
he was even nice enough to preen my arm hairs for me as well. i do believe this is a good sign he is getting comfy with me. he is getting along with my father as well.. i think my dad is becoming the favourite. his previous home the male there was
his favourite as well.

It sounds like Monty is feeling right at home now. :) If he's preening you, that means that he recognizes you as a member of his flock. Nice that he's made friends with your dad too.

yep, preening is one of the greatest signs. Preening themselves on you is a sign of relaxation, preening you is a sign that they see you as a friend and that clearly you need cleaning up!
