Its 00:30 here, and know it is usually a normal behaviour but he has been doing it for 15 mins nonstop now . He opens his beak first (without streching his neck) , then scratches his beak again on a perch , repeats . And yes , not his head , his beak .
I checked to see if he had something stuck on his throat but it seems fine . My second I guess was " maybe molting dried him out a bit ? Or the air in my room is a bit dry ? " so I put a glass of steaming water next to his cage , covered both the glass and his cage so he would have some steam . He calmed down a bit , but it can just be that he is too sleepy right now .
He didnt eat that recent so I am guessing he isnt cleanning his beak by scratching it on perches or something , and it usually doesnt take this long,... what is he doing then ?? I am quite confused .
He has also been itching a bit more, usually his head , but my guess for that was he is probably molting ; even though I didnt see any feathers around it is molting season after all .
What are you guys' opinion on this ?
