Hi guys, long time no see
I was part of your community for a very short time, until unfortunately, my baby Charlie died very quickly from a deadly virus after which I could not recover for a very long time. I blamed myself for a long time and thought that I didn't deserve a bird, until some time ago I saw GCC for adoption. The ad stood for a long time and no one wanted her because of her pronounced biting and screaming. I went to see her and she seemed so frightened so I took her. (side note: I got rid of all Charlie's stuff, and she can't be in contact with anything he was with so she can't get sick.)
At first, she looked very poorly, sitting in the corner of her new cage when I was around but playing and eating when I went to another room. Then she started going out and first, she would just fly around. Then the changes came rapidly, she started sitting on my shoulder, preening my hair, and giving me birdy kisses and now she wants to be around me 24/7 xD also sometimes she will get completely puffed up almost like she is being flirty so I'm wondering am I making some mistakes simulating her to think im her mate? I don't pet her wings since I know it's a big no no, she doesn't have any nests in her cage and is on a pellet/veggie diet. She doesn't scream and she only bites me when we are playing but it's not too hard. But still, if you have any advice I would appreciate it. We also go out often, and I don't plan to get another bird as a companion since I already have two dogs so it would be too costly.
