Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

LMAO, I just put my conure back onto his/her playgym because he/she was busy rubbing his/her rearend all over my hand while I was trying to move the mouse. I guess I don't know whether I have a male or female, but I was kind of assuming it was female by the way she was acting, not "humping" but bending way over, sticking her tail up in the air and making really weird noises....and the buttrubbing. 
I'm glad I'm not the only one with a horny bird.

Getting him a female won't help. I did this once and the female laid eggs and the male humped the perch, LOL. Never any fertile eggs. Just enjoy your bird for who he is and let him have his pleasure. The only thing is he may rub a few feathers off.

I have a female cockatiel that does it and is housed with a male. Head down little short sounds allways like to do it on my leg. I all so have a lovebird who does it. My quaker just lays a half dozen eggs or so over a week a couple times a year. No but rubbing involved with her.
