Have you DNA tested this bird to confirm that they're male?

Because that to me looks like a female who would like to mate with something. Welcome to Horny Hormonal Parrot Fun Time, or, as others call it, "spring".

i have not done a dna test but i have had another reply saying that they suspect that the kak is a female. the pet shop confirmed he was male but i guess they can make mistakes. what should i do?

Could you perhaps share a video of his/her behaviour? It would make it easier for us to identify it.

This is an old thread from last year, the OP hasn’t been back here for quite some time so you may not get a reply.
