I've had Duncan for about a week now and he does something I'm not familiar with. Duncan is supposedly three years old and his eyes are those of an older bird. However, when he's with me and we are playing, he begins to cry like a young bird who wants to be fed with a syringe. He tries to hand feed on my fingernails. He is eating just fine, and other than this weird behavior, he seems normal behaviorally.
Any thoughts?

It sounds to me like he is bonding with you. I wouldn't worry about it ;D

It sounds like a mating/bonding type of behaviour. They will make sqeaky sorts of noises and either nibble your fingers or regurgitate food for you.

Noel,
Joshua still occasionally does that sort of thing, and he is sixteen! It sounds like he is really trying to bond with you.

well very cool then. I had suspected that he was just bonding, but it was a new behavior/sound for me. My previous CG was very reserved and didn't like to be handled.
