Head bobbing

I wanted to ask if head bobbing ment anything becuse Coco Loco does alot of head bobbing.More when I havenīt been looking at him and he caches my eye. And can someone give me any hints on changeing what the baby says Coco Loco says "ven por aca" (come here in spanish)this was the first thing I said when I saw him and he says it all day long mixed with the other things I have said to him.

How old is Coco Loco? He may be regurgitating for you when he bobs his head. Parrots do that to show affection as well as a mating thing. It's rather unpleasant but they basically bring up food from their crops. It's best to ignore it when he does it. If he happens to be on you when he does, just put him down on his playstand or in his cage for a while.

Yes, both parents feed the young. The male feeds the female while she is on the nest.
