Our Morgan (approx 2 years old), once very standoffish, has become hormonal and enamored with my fingernails to the point of regurgitating and lately, attempting masturbation.
I love that he is finally warming up, but not in this way!
He becomes agitated if I hide my nails, pecking at my skin. I put him down, and he flies to my head, then jumps on my hand, over and over.) I do not want to punish him by putting him in the cage and closing the door - it is not his fault that he is hormonal- but I know this behavior is not helpful I have taken to wearing gloves.
We have never touched him in inappropriate areas (back, wings, tummy). He barely allows scritching.
He and Maddy (about 4 years old) have been spatting, too. If I separate them, the free one flies to be with the caged one!
I changed up the toys, they get around 10- 12 hours each day in a darkened cage- any other ideas?
I dearly love him, but geeze!
