Samba loves to get kissed, my wife says "kiss" and he swings his cheek in for a kiss. Will do about anything to get scratched. He is still settling in, and I noticed his color are getting much more vibrant. (We feed our birds about everything and anything that is healthy in addition to their pellets). Samba has a thing for Broccoli and Gala apples and I hide my sliced turkey when he is around.
