RIP my little Ica I live in Glossop, nr Manchester My name is Tracey	Hello there I wondered if any of you (particularly if you've got more than 1 parrotlet) have seen this behaviour - Am not sure if you will get what i mean, but here goes - lots of times, when Ica comes to see me, he lands on the arm of my chair on top of a cushion, he faces me and does this thing that looks like a bow - he drops his head towards me and his wings come out to the side a bit and makes a particular chirping noise. when I have tried repeating this noise and drop my head and then he will come over and give me kisses. I think it might be mating behaviour - what do you think?? Tracey :wacko:

RIP my little Ica I live in Glossop, nr Manchester My name is Tracey	i just wish he didn't have such an aversion to hands - he still hates them, i can't put a finger anywhere near him, sitting on my head means i have to keep dusting seed out of my hair!!! He loves butterfly kisses though, he sits on the arm of the chair & loves it when i kiss his tummy rotfl
