I'm not sure what I'm hitting...and I'm sure if he did not like it...I'd get the beak, but when I scritch Bogey on the top of his head sometimes, it makes his head wobble, back and forth, like a muscle reaction, for lack of a better explanation? Has anyone else seen,heard,felt this?

My name is I'll give you a clue	hi bill, well i agree if he didn't like it you'd get the beak that's for sure :lol: if you had said his head goes from side to side like a wobble i would say hes loving it and is regurgitating to you ( a sign of birdy love :wub: ) back and forth probably means he likes it anyway :)

You do have to be somewhat careful not to get your eyeball bit :o when they sit and rest on my shoulder, I turn my head towards one an just give a little butterfly kiss on their beak. Try it , he'll like it. :)

I'm not sure what he's looking to get to. I let him get right next to my face, Just going to be a matter of time, and which body part will bear the brunt! LOL! I should have named him JAWS. Just when i think I have the nipping trained. Whack. i have tried Kevins suggestion of putting your mouth right on his back and talking to him. He expects that now. I'll attempt the Butterfly tomorrow!
