Does anyone else's Redfoot cluck like a chicken? He was sitting on top of his food dish and was clucking away ... My daughter freaked out and picked him up..... Well you can guess what he was doing [SMILING FACE WITH HEART-SHAPED EYES]..(loving his dish). We went thru this in the spring where he would pile up dirt and go to town on it..then his water dish.. A rock... What ever he count mount he would. All summer he has been content. Now he is back at it ... Loving on anything he can, digging holes, mounting rocks, his food dish, water dish ..... Pacing his cage back and forth. I feel sorry for him!

Perhaps you can home a beautifully shaped appropriately sized smooth rock, doll it up a bit, give "her" a name....and introduce the two :p:p

LMAO. They do make noise when they are doing the dirty deed:D. Poor fella.

He was so L O U D! And nothing like those soft noises on YouTube!
I doo feel bad for him getting all worked up. He woke us up at 4am going to town on his dish again .. We just laid in bed with our mouths hanging open in shock!

That would mean several females... Can't just have one female or the male would love into death. I don't have the room for a small herd right now.
