Even though Will Ferrell is in the middle of a disappointing movie run the comedian hasn't lost a step on the late-night circuit. Last week's shenanigans included becoming the new face of Little Debbie and telling Jon Stewart how much he sucks, and last night he brought a cockatoo named Professor Feathers to Conan. He refused to talk about it, however, because a public figure needs to have boundaries. 

"I'm happy to come on your show, and I'm happy to talk about the movie Get Hard," he said in a serious tone. "But I don't want to talk about my personal life, ok? So we're not going to discuss the bird on my shoulder."

Watch the hilarious tension the bird creates between Ferrell and Conan in the video above.
