not sure if this post belongs in this section...
anyway, in all my books i've read about birds masturbating and thought it was crazy. ive had my other conure for a long time before charlie and never, ever remember him doing anything like this. I was a lot younger and maybe didn't realize it but still never remember behavior like this. i took a short video of charlie doing this, he chose his blanket as his "mate" i guess. first time ive seen him do this was last night and now this morning..he was sitting on his bar, drooped his wings like i've seen him do many times but then he started moving his vent/tail up and down on his blanket+perch. i'm not sure if i am suppose to let him just do his thing or what, i mean it doesn't bother me lol it's just weird...
anyone go through this with their parrot yet? maybe there was a discussion on it already not sure. kind of hesitant to post the video on here but i will have it up on my blog maybe a little later.
