I love my sweet GCCs. They are so fun to watch and get to understand.
However, my 6 year old are absolutely obsessed with them. To the point when it's difficult to get her to understand that they are not toys to be played with.
She's not mean to them by any means. It's the complete opposite. She loves them way way too much and it's become a bit of a problem with the birds in general. They are tolerant of her but they are fearful of her. They definitely have more trust with me but immediate distance when it comes to her...
It's become a real behavioral trigger for myself and for my 6 year old.
I've been considering the idea that maybe they need to be re-homed and possibly going for a medium sized bird that is not as easy to handle in small hands.
Any advice would be amazing!
