Conures and hormones

[TikiBird]

Is there a set time when certain species get hormonal??
I am wondering if little pixel is hormonal right now.

She doesn't want to be cuddled much at all,and wants to hide under blankets and newspaper every chance she gets.

She bites my fiance
(unless he coaxes a step up with a sunflower seed)
and still likes me but is "hands off" at the moment.

Hormones??

Oh yes. Hormones. It's that time of year my friend. My conure wants nothing to do with love and bites bites BITES

 

[TwilightsImprint]

Yep it is that time of year. Both of mine are heart set on turning me into a piece of ground beef.

 

[GG.]

Seems to be that time of year already!

 

[Sharpie]

It's hormone time early in a lot of places this year, it seems.

 

[TikiBird]

Well that explains it thanks

Hormone time for Ella, but Archie is still his sweet self I've just been giving Ella a little more time to "herself", and letting her perch on my knee when I watch TV or something. She lately has been nipping the side of my face when she's on my shoulder. I'm sure its hormones, as she then preens my hair. Her nips aren't hard, but I still don't want them hehe.

There's a reason why they say "Spring is in the air".

Boomer, my GCC is going threw it himself. He's naughtly, only does what HE want and does not listen to me what so ever. It's like I don't exist, lol. Little bugger!

bella has gotten nippy lately and is moody and is slightly plucking her down feathers on her upper chest. and chewing on her tail feathers. I'm thinking hers is hormonal also but I'm making her a visit to the vet just in case it's not..
