Maxwell, my precious Sennie, 2 years old.
Sunny, my baby budgie. 5ish months old.
A few questions from a new parront..
I have a 2 year old Senegal named Maxwell and I'm new to owning birdys. I have a few questions...
1) Why does he keep wagging his tail feathers and fluffing up?!
2) When he's in his cage he refuses to sleep until I bring him out, then he will sleep on my shoulder... ?????
3) He doesn't really like when I touch his head and sometimes even snaps at me when I touch it. Is this common?
He only likes to be pet on his back or under his wings, but I'm nervous because I don't want to um.. stimulate him too much.
4) He is constantly "quivering" his wings when he is on my hand, lifting them off his body just slightly and then putting them down again, and wagging his tail. Why does he do this and should I be concerned?
5) He's always mumbling. It sounds almost like a record player going too fast. Its very quiet, and he rarely makes any noise except for this one.. Is that normal? What is he doing when he mutters like that?
Thank you!!!! I just want the best for my lil buddy
