Timbersmom Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Well, this is a subject I didn't realize I would have to bring up. Timber hangs on his bell, which is suspended from his cage ceiling. He appears to be masturbating. Is that possible? I know I sound stupid and I imagine birds do this, but I'm ignorant, so please help me out! If that's the case, I assume I should just ignore the behavior? Thanks!

Zoom Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 He might very well be masturbating....two of my three birds masturbate, and I'm sure Simon will start soon. Perfectly natural and there's nothing wrong with it, just like with people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timbersmom Posted November 11, 2012 Author Share Posted November 11, 2012 haaaaa... good to know I'm not the proud owner of a perv at any rate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissOMalley Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Dutch and Emmy do it...a lot. They are both very hormonal right now. They especially like doing it when company is over.....awkward! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timbersmom Posted November 11, 2012 Author Share Posted November 11, 2012 Interesting. After I typed that I thought it sounded a little naive. I've just never seen it in birds. Of course, I haven't spent a lot of time with one before either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffNOK Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 (edited) Oh No! Say it ain't so! I'm removing all bells from Gracie's cage. We live in a Republican state after all. I plan to replace her breeder band with a purity ring. I don't want her going blind or growing hair on her talons. I'm revoking her internet privileges too--so much birdie smut online these days. Can't be too vigilant. Edited November 11, 2012 by JeffNOK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timbersmom Posted November 11, 2012 Author Share Posted November 11, 2012 LOLOL Gives a whole new perspective to the fascination greys have with bells doesn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timbersmom Posted November 11, 2012 Author Share Posted November 11, 2012 Wouldn't you like to know what is going on in their heads? At least Timber hasn't made me the object of his affection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katana600 Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 It does give new meaning to "ring my bell". I have never given this a thought, but haven't noticed any of this. Probably Gilbert just hasn't gotten that comfortable yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talon Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 This thread has turned hilarious! My greys hadn't done that yet that I have seen, they are 7, but my 3 year old amazon does it on my a lot!! Mostly this past spring.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timbersmom Posted November 12, 2012 Author Share Posted November 12, 2012 Well, I just thought he was playing with the bell until I really took a close look the other night. Gilbert may just be sneakier... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zons are notorious for keeping lets say "Reading Material". Look for hidden copies of Zustler, Zonboy and also don't forget to look for a tv remote and block the Zon-A-Licious channel. Hopefully you'll be able to getg this under control once all the materials are found. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
