I recently adopted a 2 year old sun conure named mango. The first day I got her I put her in a new cage and let her be. She screamed a bunch so I eventually introduced myself. Her previous owner gave her up because she would attack the dogs, her owner also always kept her on her shoulder. Mango is super confusing because she HATES hands, but she’ll gladly eat from them. She’s fine if you feed her a sunflower seed but god forbid you’re hand tries to clean the side of her cage. I let her out a bunch and she usually just sits on the door, or she flys to my shoulder. I was fine with it because she would casually chill while I went about my day. But recently shes gotten worse. Yesterday she pecked maybe face pretty bad ( and I promise I wasn’t doing anything) then today she pecked my mom’s face and now my mom wants to get rid of her. Mango is a sweetheart and I know she’s not mean. I just want to know how I can get her to get used to hands and not try to peck my eyes out any chance she gets.
