My grey showing me his privates through cage

[tarheelgal]

Ok he has done this on a few different times. Yesterday I took his collar off so he could preen himself collar is on because he mutilates himself anyways he was all hiped up and mad because I wouldn't give him a cracker so he goes in his cage climbs on the side hold one foot up and pushes what looks to be his penis through the cage I try to ignore this behavior some times when he does it its not because he is mad so I am not sure what his deal is he is 11 years old. Is this sexual frustration or what?

Oh Jesus, wiping the tears form my eyes from laughing so hard at that mental picture... That is odd behavior, but many do crazy things when the are angry or want something.

 

African Greys nor any other Parrots have a "Penis", the Vasa does have what is called a "Hemi-Penis" which is basically a rather reptilian type obtrusion of the Cloacal enlarged. It would be interesting if you could capture a photo of him when doing this.

 

Here is Vasa Parrot excited:

Are you sure you have an african grey for if he has what the vasa has in the picture that Dan shared with us then I have my doubts, why don't you try to capture a pic of it next time it happens so we can all see, inquiring minds want to know!

I think that it is an appropriate time for me to say ROTFLMAO! I think this is an adult only thread so I won't let Stella see this.... she's just not ready yet!
