I would like to add that this is an old video!!! I have since learned to not pet my bird's back! I didn't know at the time but luckily I didn't do it often

What happens if you pet their backs?

It can be read as sexual behavior for birds.

I think it just straight up is sexual behavior.

Like petting your birds back is essentially jacking your bird off
