Just wondering, my Senegal is a female(DNA Tested) and she doesnt raise her bum to me, as you would think when she is a little frisky as such, but she does alittle funny dance and chatting noises.
She fluffs her self up, steps back and forth on her feet and does funny little chatting noises and the odd squeak in between, and then will some times do the action of wanting to regurgiate for me.... but when i hold her to a mirror she also starts these noises and actions.....


what is this little show??

This is mating behavior of a sennie

the wings are in the same position but thats about it!

Is it more of a jabbering noise she makes...like she's trying to talk but it's all mumbled? My sennie used to do the same thing, and I've seen the same behavior from my Meyers and CAG. I think it's a bonding/mating behavior....
