Checking out the neighborhood
Hello fellow parents,
I am absolutely new to handle this GCC little monster and it is my fifth day with Twitty. He is a lovely boy of 16 weeks. Very friendly and seems to have grown attached to me in a short span. He hates being in his cage and always with me and copy whatever I am doing. I live alone in a studio and yesterday I had two visitors for the first time since he has arrived. Twitty was startled a bit but was quite accepting towards one of my friends, while did not like the other one much. Since they have left, there’s a sudden change in behaviour. He has turned extremely chirpy, clingy and NIPPY! He used to nip before as well but now it’s harder and specially on my ears, if no access to ears, on my face. It hurts now. A lot. I tried to removed his beaks by slowly pulling them apart, withstanding a lot of pain. Put him down on the floor. Avoided any interaction, paid no attention. But he would keep flying back to me and nip again. I am not sure if it’s aggressive as he would cuddle at the same time. I am very confused. Another thing, when my friends left he was suddenly very vocal, which he is not usually. Please help me understand his behaviour if you have any idea. Thanks a ton!
