How many people can actually play with their parrots?

My SO can put Mochi on her back and the little rascal is too happy to let her play with her toes and nuzzle her tummy - but I can't try that, lol! Most I can do is kiss the top of her head occasionally or get a scritch in edge-wise.


Anyway whenever either is tired of affection or have their lil feetsies rubbed they'll just spring away haha.

There's the head-flicking game I play with 3 Goffins in the bird room. When they are hanging out in separate areas, I'll quickly dart my head looking at each one repeatedly, holding the gaze for about a second. They'll almost instantly respond, doing the same to the two others and me! Sometimes it will escalate to swaying their entire bodies too and fro.
