Hello! I am a proud new parent of a baby cockatiel. I was wondering somethings about my bird's (Piper) behavior. Piper is a very tame baby who was hand fed and loves to be out of the cage. When I open the door and say come she jumps to my finger. She seems to enjoy listening to me talk. I've only had Piper for 4 days and yesterday Piper started clicking its mandibles together and lifting one leg. Piper does this sitting on my finger and on her outside perch. I have read that this can be defensive or possessive. Anyone have experience with this? Is Piper being aggressive or possessive of me?
Piper also shakes its head quite often.
Thanks!
