Sun making noise in her sleep

Does anyone else`s bird do this? My sun conure Fajita makes lots of little peeping or chirping noises when she`s sleeping. She also sleeps hunched over, leaning so far forward it looks as if she is about to fall off her perch. I recently bought her one of those birdie hut things, but she will only go in it if I set her on the front of it or I put food in the middle ofit. She will go in to get the food and come right out. I think she will get used to it. Just wondered if these noises were normal for a sun.

Does it sound like a chicken? My sun makes little clucking noises when he is settling in (but not while he is sleeping). This is why I call him my little chicken :)

My sun loves his happy hut. He also loves hiding under towels ontop of his cage. Sometime he makes little birdy sounds when he's sleeping. The little peeps and chirps are pretty normal as far as i know.

Oh god, my black capped does this from 2am-3am every night. It drives me nuts. It's squeaking, screaming, chirping, talking; every noise he can come up with. But every time I go to check on him he's fast asleep inside of his sleeping blanket(he sleeps inside a blanket at the bottom of the cage).

It's weird, he never says anything during the day except for his purring noises when you walk away from him.

I agree, if they are not in a deep sleep and sense you are near they will chirp or kiss or whaterver. Just a sign of affection even though they are not on you.. Kinda just a way to let you know they know you are there and they love you. Its a good thing!!
