I don't even know what to think of this bird anymore...

I don't know what his deal is, except maybe he was dropped on his head as a peep.

Whatever it is though, he's got disciples.

Really cute ones.

Seriously, I didn't put either of them up there. They flapped, scrambled and climbed all by themselves. Then settled down and attempted to nap. I left them alone until my arm started falling off.

Perhaps he is a parrot or falcon wanna be? Dreams of flight and greatness...pretty chicks!

I've got some that do that. They want to jump up and sit on my head.

that is too funny !! mine like to fly out of the brooder & onto my lap & take a nap..
they are adorable birds !

So far Oscar (the BO) isn't at all bad about it. He just wants to nap there. The bhrama keeps trying to peck my freckles off. That kind of hurts

 

[sparkles2307]

Hmmm mine do the opposite. They fly out of my hands back INTO the brooder and then squawk at me in disgusted tones....

Last year when my roo was a young cockerel he liked to perch ON TOP OF MY HEAD! He's big now... and has long nails... and spurs... so he AIN'T gonna be perching there anymore... no way, no how!

That sounds painful as heck. I don't let them on my head or too close to my face most of the time since the Bhrama also likes to peck my teeth and lips which REALLY hurts. Otherwise, so far, they're pretty good.​

I think it is so sweet when they do that!!!

I have one you do NOT bend over around, though. The second you do she jumps on your back, shakes her rear and settles down for a nap. It is like she thinks you bent over just to make that comfy resting spot for her!!! LOL
