Hi there, 5 days ago I got my lovely African grey, he is 25 years old according to the last seller but I can't verify this. I bonded with him on the first night, he came up to me and bowed his head for me to give him a scratch, since then we've been having a great time. On day two I got him to sit on my shoulder and that's when it started, the problem. He makes these whimpering sounds and like regurgitates his food while bobbing his head and tried to feed me, while he is doing this his wings are like out slightly and very low. I've read some places that this means he loves me and that but like it's not a nice behaviour cos he does it every time I pick him up, I just want him to be like a normal bird and sit on my shoulders calmly and not try to mouth kiss me and feed me. Sometimes I see food even come out his beak and it's not very nice, also when people come over I try not to pick him because of this. Oh and I'm 22 and a male.
I've searched online how to stop your parrot from trying to mouth feed you but have found nothing so I was hoping someone here could help me? Like how do I stop him from doing this?
