it's scary as shes doing her egg thing and shes NOT attacking me. she has been asking for scritches, and in this case, even as shes sitting on an infertile egg lol it was a completely sweet moment. she even gently nibbled my fingers!
(FYI we tried preventing the laying, she lays a clutch or two every winter and gets it out of her system. we prevent it but eventually she wins in the end
but we have full spectrum lighting and shes on a good diet we add extra nutrients for the nesty time of year 
)
but i just wanted to share this completely gentle side of munch
if anyone knows anything about hormonal lovebird hens, you will know they become little demons who chomp you for coming NEAR their cage... this was right in her "nest". so this was a very rare thing to see for me lol especially since every other day of the year, she's psychotic lol
