Sorry but not a big fan of the "R" word it could be very demeaning to people with intellectual disabilities.
On the other hand I have to say that I have had more of that experience with too's than the other birds I have had or housed for any period of time.

I've got a few birds here who masterbate (male and female!), and this is what I was thinking the 'too was doing! However, I am unfamiliar with a bird shaking as if cold!

It's certainly a good thing you know!

[Lisa B]

yep, that woulda been my guess

[cherriesanglea]

and for the one that dont like the"R" word my neice is mentally disabled, and i love her to death so if your tring to come off as some kind of a saint your talking to the wrong person i asked for advice on my bird not how i talk! thank you!!!! im sorry if i come off like a b*tch but you dont know me or anything going on in my life soo you can take what you what how you want!
