EclectusRoratus

hello there! Today is the second day with my new Eclectus. He's an eclectus roratus from the solomon Islands. His name is Gannicus. Today when I got home from work he acknowledged my presence with a big "WOOOO" So i went over to him, and he was sitting on top of his cage and I bribed him to step up with a treat. hahaha. But now he is just hanging out on my shoulder & rubs his beak on my cheek! I am so glad he is starting to feel comfortable.
I have a few questions!
1. how many toys should be in his cage? I have read 10-12 and someone told me 20! I was pretty shocked. He only came with three toys. He doesn't play with them much but I'm thinking it may be because he is settling in still and/or because the toys look pretty old and he may be bored of them.
2. He keeps just grinding his beak! He moves it non stop and it makes this odd sound. Any ideas?
Thanks for looking.
ohh and im not sure how to upload a picture on here!?
