Question The feathers on my chinny chin,chin

I was wondering if anyone elses grey does this thing where (he kinda looks like an old man) but he takes his foot and scratches from the bottom of his beak to the back where those bones are? and he keeps doing it like hes scratching his chin like we would but I do scratch him there I didnt know if hes just itchy, I dont think there is something wrong its just odd

I'm thinkin' about it!!! LOL, I think Martini does the same thing you are describing, everytime she does that, it makes me think she's thinking or pondering about something. So that's what I say, "I'm thinkin' about it!!" In hopes that one day that is exactly what she says when doing that. so cute, so cute.
