Is my conure okay??

[lil_burdy]

So my dad has had a jenday conure namer Zeus for about 3 years now, and he’s always seemed pretty healthy. Well, as of recently I’ve noticed he’s been standing with his foot holding onto the side of his head and kind of scratching at his face. I feel like he’s in some kind of pain but I haven’t been able to find anything online that describes/explains why he’s doing what he’s doing. My dad never takes me serious when I bring it up but I feel like he’s got something wrong with his head and I’m afraid for him Any help is much appreciated!!

He’s inviting someone to give him scritches. He’s feeling ignored and wants some love!

Awww really?? So is he just showing the bottom of his head so I’ll scratch it? Thank you so much, I was so worried!! I’m not at my dads house a lot but I’ll make sure to give him extra love in case he’s not getting enough when I’m not around

Actually he wants you to scratch the top. He should be grabbing the top and running it down the sides. So the top of the head and cheeks

Seems like normal behavior but you are saying it's different. I do see several pin feathers so maybe he needs a good bath and some scritches?
