take it calm...let her adjust to her new enviroment, dont push her to do things she isnt ready for.

how long have you had her?

remember every bird is it own personality..never watch a vid and think your parrot will be like that one...it might be..but also might not, Jack isnt much of a hoper even tho he does it sometimes now and then and he loves scritches a sign he been watching Toby :D

just find out wich treat he likes most and use that when you training and building a trust.

just ask if you wanna know more
