Meeting neighbors
I just recently got a Quaker Parrot and he LOVES chewing on my face. He likes to preen my hair/face but he especially likes chewing on my lips. I try to discourage that because I don't want him ingesting any harmful bacteria I might have in my mouth, but any time I get him close to my face, he goes right for my lips and chews all over my face. It ends up hurting sometimes too. Its adorable and I love him but I know it might not be safe for him and it hurts sometimes. What should I do? I like cuddles but I don't like constant face-picking.
