Twitching wings and head?

[Cjaye]

I just got my cinnamon GCC, Fig, about three weeks ago. The past week she has been twitching her wings and her head sometimes when I try to pet her or when she gets overwhelmed. When a finger reaches towards her she twitches her wings and rapidly shakes her head while squawking. It usually happens when she feels overwhelmed or unhappy, but is this a bad sign? Should i bring her to the vet? Im a new bird owner and I feel worried.

Wing twitching is very much normal . I find mine do it when they’re excited about something.

That's a huge relief, thank you so much! I was really worried she was sick or something

I was hoping mine would do it right now so i could take a picture to show you but no such luck.

No worries! She does it kinda does it aggressively though. Like if she sees someone trying to pet her head she will squawk and start twitching and stuff. She has done it a few times just to herself, like the twitching thing...

Very normal, especially for green cheeks. They are very sassy
