kins2321@yahoo.com Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 I'm not sure!!! I know many struggle with hormones... Sophie was never a hormone crazy girl. ( we had Kiki to do all the hormonal stuff!) I was never big on refusing a regurg, as long as it was in my hand. ( Sophie usually did, after having a very fun day, and wanted to leave me a gift). She still does! You have to know your bird, understand sexual aggression, then make a decision Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would try to not encourage it, but he is just trying to "share" with you. This may at some point escalate to a regurgitation. When I get out of the shower, Isaac is always trying to feed me. I love him...but I tell him I am okay and that he can keep what he has for himself. Thank you anyway. LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
