I bought myself a cinimon parrot over a week ago now, he has been completely fine today he was biting a little harder then usual and now all of a sudden he's not acting himself and he is cuddling up inside my hair if I get him out and put him on my chest he runs up to under my neck and wedges himself there and he has been wedging himself between me and the lounge, out of no where he has become very very cuddly and he's not acting how he normally does. He looks very scared when he cuddles up and frightened. His environment hasn't changed since he got here so it can't be from any changes, he's diet is the same and his poo is the same. He just seems like he's running away from something that's not there.
Can anyone help ?
 
Well, since he appears to be running TO you, at least you're sure that YOU are not what he's afraid of.

Isn't he maybe just feeling lonely or unsure and needing a little love and security? How old is he? Could it be hormones maybe?

The lady said he was 11 weeks so he's not very old at all, if he's hiding behind me and I move to the other end of the lounge he'll follow me and find somewhere to nudge himself in a corner somewhere on my body, I'm just worried cause he's never done this before

He is showing less signs of afraid now and more comfortable but he still is doing the constant hiding

Where is his cage? Is he skiddish?
I would assume that he's feeling lonely, missing his past environment. If there is no other reason other than maybe, medical??
Some birds just defy logic....lol
 
He is pretty young, so he could have all of a sudden spied something that scares him. I would try walking around the room(s) with him and watch his behavior as you get near things in the room... you may find out what is scaring him this way. If you do, try to remove it from the room. Doesn't mean he'll always be afraid of the item, but for the meantime, he can relax if it's not in sight.
