Yooo its been awhile since ive posted here haha. Not sure if i should be posting this in general or specifically in the conure section, but im assuming this behavior goes for all parrots. Is there any specific reason why he does this? He seems happy and gets comfy afterwards so i dont think its anything bad. I posted an unlisted youtube video of him doing it, heres the link :)

A crossover Quaker Scuti (F), A Sun conure named AC, A Cinnamon Green Cheek conure Kent, and 6 budgies, Scuti Jr. (f), yellow (m), clark Jr. (m), Dot (f), Zebra(f), Machine (m).
IT SOUNDS like your gcc is mimicing other birds in your flock. Like mine will say the word "chirp" but doesn't chirp... it says the word "chirp". He/She is just picking up on what they hear all day.....In my opinion.

Looks like a typical happy GCC to me! My Ona makes all kinds of weird noises - they just like to practice their noises sometimes. Sometimes the strutting can even be a form of dancing.
