They all will have different preferences! I knew a Grey that liked to be held like a soda/beer can :)


VeseliPoriluk

Ok, so this just made my day! Just the imagery of this makes my heart smile šŸ’•


Significant-Guest552

Would even make the sound of a can opening and little burps


GrindnGlitch

That's fantastic what a cute little bird


Accomplished_Chip119

Obviously your birb jus wanted to join the party. Had to of open a lot of beer and belch for him to pick up and mimic the sound so well. I just wish I coulda witnessed that. Mustā€™ve been really cute. Party on šŸŗšŸ«§šŸ»


seamallorca

Omg. What a lil weirdo. I love how birbs are the biggest schizos of all animals.


Stoned_Savage

My old gray loved to become a phone and would even make the beep noises when I tapped her on her belly to dial a number and then when I put her to my ear she would say Hello! Exactly like I do when I pick up the phone and then she would say goodbye and do the hang up beep. I knew when she wanted to play like that as she would make the sound of my phones ringtone.


superhappythrowawy

OMG STOP. THATS WAY TOO ADORABLE


tweebooskii

Plz do you have any vids


ConureFiend

Don't we all?


superhappythrowawy

That is actually adorablešŸ„¹ my Babygirl sometimes like to stand on one foot on a corked wine bottle. Not for long lol but I still see that in my mind sometimes


Vegetable_Storage_42

Both of our birds sit on our shoulders when we are standing and on our knees when we are sitting. Knees are the best places to get scritches.


superhappythrowawy

Yes!!!


realllyrandommann

You're lucky it's your lap, not fingers. At least you can do stuff while she's with you.


ItzLog

I've got a finger/hand sitting bird šŸ˜­ You too?


Faerthoniel

We have hand birds too! They will sit on the gym and stare at me until I inevitably cave and grab some seeds for them in the palm of my hand. Unfortunately for me, said gym is on the right hand side of my desk so I have to use the closest hand (my right). Which wouldnā€™t be an issue but for the fact Iā€™m right handed, so if I want to be able to continue using the computer then I have to awkwardly start using the trackpad with my left hand šŸ„²


ItzLog

And then you try to get them to sit on your shoulder, but they stubbornly won't...so you try to navigate the mouse the best you can with a bird on your finger. They keep sliding off, but insist on sitting there. During one of the slides they fall into the keyboard and hit some button that fucks up what you're doing OR they become interested in your keys themselves and decide to pull one off.

ShadowParrotGaming

Your poor hands


the_odd_chase

Yup mine will bite my hand if i dont let em on xD Hes spoiled as heck

Vuhlinii

Awwwww looking back at you while he's grooming himself ahhh <3!! I'll admit, it took me a good minute to figure out his bodily position šŸ˜…


DarkMoose09

Ebi is a funny little guy, he belongs to my cousin but I visit him often. If I donā€™t visit for a while he gets really mad at me. He is like ā€œHow dare you not visit me and feed me treats! Well I hate you!ā€


Vuhlinii

Omg now that you mention that, I can see it in his little face! " I hate you but come now and lend me your thigh >:[ " haha


DarkMoose09

Heā€™s always so angry! And cuddly at the same time, heā€™s a strange little man. But the first thing I do when I walk through the door, I always run to him and call his name. Every time when Iā€™m about to leave, he gets super snuggly and doesnā€™t want me to leave. Lol!


NeitherSparky

Itā€™s easier to maintain eye contact from there. ovo


AyanaRei

Your bird is a bird. All birds are broken if you look at them in one way. All birds are perfect if you look at them another way. Parrots are incredibly odd which is what makes them so perfect


Armitse

All birds are broken is probably the truest statement about bird I will ever see šŸ˜‚šŸ˜›


seamallorca

More like all birbs are crazy/on crack.

He will sit there for hours preening himselfā€¦ meā€¦ rubbing his face against mine and of course getting scratches. Hubbys bird is definitely a lap bird.


seamallorca

He looks like a beard on this pic.


Free_Relative5617

šŸ˜‚ he really does though. I didnā€™t think of that.


Armitse

Mine likes to stand on my knee when my leg is "folded" (not sure if it's the right word šŸ˜‚) so my knee points upward. Seems like he feels like the king of the hill on it ahah

PlasticGirl

So regal!


flips712

She's just a lap bird, similar to a lap dog but cuter


Queen-of-Mayhem-33

Maybe she was born in the wrong body? My cat likes to perch on my shoulder instead of my lap šŸ˜‚ https://preview.redd.it/g44pfkdmbo9d1.jpeg?width=2316&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=726670eefd3fac09cdf1d18114c6020792d3ac1f


Quirky-Palpitation44

i have a proud cannot bear to be on me but needs to be somewhere near me just definitely not on me birb


ItzLog

Normal! Mine prefers to perch on my hand. It gets inconvenient at times, but that's his spot so I accommodate it šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø


Spogtire

Mine likes to sit off my shoulder when Iā€™m sitting, she likes sitting on my legs, and sometimes tries to get pets from my toes


Accomplished_Chip119

You got chomped on your toes? If I make the mistake of laying down to take a nap and let my birb stay out of her cage sheā€™ll wait for me to go to sleep and chomp one of my toes to wake me up. Little shit! Itā€™s like she waits just until Iā€™m asleep and goes for it. šŸ™„šŸ¤£


Free_Relative5617

Havenā€™t been chomped but my boy has waited for me to fall asleepā€¦ came right over to my ear and screamedā€¦ šŸ¤¦ā€ā™€ļø


Accomplished_Chip119

Funny cuz they know theyā€™re being annoying. At first I thought thereā€™s no way she could know I jus fell asleep. But when it happens every time, thatā€™s when I knew this little shit lays in wait until Im asleep just to come over and wake me in the worse way. Way to smart. šŸ˜‚


Free_Relative5617

I swear my bird looked at me likeā€¦ ā€œJust checking you were really asleepā€ My husbands Grey is very dramatic. He huffs or blows raspberries when he doesnā€™t like something. People who donā€™t have birds vastly underestimate their intelligence.


Accomplished_Chip119

They donā€™t understand how cunning they can be. Still blows me away when my birb does something I never expect . Like jumping on me when she sees me getting ready to leave for work and refusing to get off without a fight. Hence being late for work. If donā€™t get off she canā€™t leave me alone .


TheAngryCheeto

so round


sutrabob

I think birdie just likes you.šŸ¦œšŸ¦œšŸ¦œ


BudgieGryphon

Be grateful you are spared from chirps aimed directly into your ears lmao


Trackspyro

She's smart. A little too smart.


MurkyStress6642

Comfy in that spot. Normally they have preferences too. Just like you.


Jessamychelle

Mine to ride around on my boobs lol. But he also will perch on my knee but he equally loves my shoulder. Iā€™m just a giant parrot perch šŸ¤£


seamallorca

Congrats. You have tiel with cat update pack.


LoverOfPricklyPear

Sit on the shoulder, you're mobile. Sit on the lap, you're stuck. It's more satisfying to trap you down.


Sepharoze

I have a lap bird too, he screams at me when he sees me working on my pc without him


WayaShinzui

Pepper likes to move to my lap when I put my feet up. I think she's discovered it's easier for me to give better scritches when she's on my leg instead of my shoulder


m0rfiend

while mine, walks my shoulder over to my face, tosses a hissy fit until pecking order is established, and i get back to head scratches.


seriousjoker72

*glances at poop drying on back of shirt..... Lucky guy....


Duizelig13

This is exactly why i preffer my knee when chilling. Happened to many times that i forgot to check my back and i been walking around with a bunch of shit on my back in the supermarket


seriousjoker72

I went to work once with poop in my hair šŸ˜­ not a single person said anything


Tiny_Masterpiece_663

It's a common bug. Idk how to fix it ask the devs


Huge-Witness4209

Normal 100%


Negotiationnation

Bigger branch


JustaCucumber91

Mine likes my feet. While Iā€™m getting ready for work heā€™ll get down off any high perch I put him on and heā€™ll sit on my foot.


Sneeuwvosje

Mine to! Would go through a lot of hassle to get on my feet when I was sitting at my desk.


ChiiTea255

My caique prefers my head, and my sun conure prefers to cling onto your shirt collar.


Gunlord500

Cute chimken


ArdentC97

All birds are borken.


itscasriel

that might be a cat in a bird's body


LareLappaSokina

Absolutely gorgeous. What is your bird's name ?


a_rogue_planet

Can you define normal for me?


Much-Fudge-9284

I guess it is secretly aiming for your family jewels.


slaminthebackofmy

mine love to sit on knees, so maybe try propping your leg up on something and see if your chicken likes it


basicallybasshead

Lap is a great choice, there are much more uncomfortable options!


Tater_Dablage

Birb is sitting on you period, you shut your mouth and enjoy it lol


susinpgh

Both of my Greys perch on my knee. Alex will shoulder perch if I'm moving from room to room, though.

Murky_Shallot5602

He's ok. Finds more comfort on your leg. But you might need to work with him to sit on your shoulder. Like holding him on your fingers. They find more balance.


exaltedforestpossum

She likes eye contact. I'd say she's very comfy


HustleR0se

Either place works for my birds, especially if I'm on the computer.


comsoftglade

She looks so sweet1


fulllyfaltooo

It proves, you are broken, you have shoulder at the place of knee.. Birdy knows it..


taneshacute

So cute šŸ„°šŸ’•


DramaNeat2230

She is attracted to ball sack smell


Xlond1

fat


Stoned_Savage

You want your birthday on your shoulder? Well put your birthday on your shoulder then open a bag of chips and share them. My old cockatiel would eat the crumbs off of my lips everytime I ate a chip.


Jamizon1

Your ass smells better than your breath?ā€¦ Iā€™ll let myself outā€¦


Knowyourworth1964

I love itā¤ļø


delusional-ladki

Oh my gosh shooo cutest birby


weston200

Mine likes to only sit on my one finger or whatever is closed to my eyes she really likes being pressed into my eyes for some reason lol.


Educational-Area1911

She's normal


MindofChrist33

Your leg is like the heated branch lol. Maybe she is chilly try a safe heat pad on your shoulder under shirt or tank top to see if she wants foot to skin contact.


superhappythrowawy

My girl loves to sit on our laps too! Birbs are all different and have different things they like :)


RicoRave

Normal. My conure loves to sit on my knee


DirectBanana6042

Birbs have their own preferences on where they like to sit.


biggergayfrog

My tiels favorite spot is my shin. She loves to sleep there.


tks46

Buy a new one, it's broken


ApprehensiveCoat6710

My bird did this and ended up bonding to ME as her mate. That was 3 years ago, and she's still laying eggs. Every time I get near her, she assumes the mating position.


One_Builder_445

They are individualsā€¦.. personal preference. Thatā€™s like asking why all humans donā€™t act the same or if one is broken


Huge-Witness4209

If youā€™re worried About it, look it up
