Hi everyone! I hope somebody can help me figure out what's going on with my green cheek. I've had the bird for a little over two months and it has been molting since I adopted it. It has already bonded to me and I spend at least three hours of on one on one time with it everyday. The last two weeks, there has been a lot of mating behavior going on. Lots of regurgitation and rubbing it's butt on my hands. This bird is supposedly only about 9 months old, so I'm confused. I have read that conures don't reach sexual maturity until AT LEAST one year old.
Since the bird is "sitting" and rubbing it's vent on my hand can I safely assume it's a male? Do females sometimes attempt to masturbate that way?
