I'e got a sweet 2 year old female cobalt blue linnie, and I love her to pieces, her nam is Tiki!
Linnies are just adorable
Is the bird you are interested in hand tame?
The good: Linnes are sweet little birds, mine loves attention, she loves to be talked to, she's got a sweet personality, she loves to play with her toys and isnt very loud, and for the most part she doesnt make as much noise as some birds do.
She loves to take baths and enjoys her fruits and veggies. They are silly and will learn to mimik noise and words, they are devoted little birds, with the cutest little faces. They do love to learn, ive played songs on youtube and she has quickly learned to whistle those songs. You need to be soft and patient when teaching them things, but even though they can be shy, Im convinced that any linnie can learn to trust and learn new things
The not so great: If you want a hands on bird, one that will perch on your hand or finger or shoulder, you might be disappointed, linnies for whatever reason tend to be very hand shy, and don't want to be handled. You can of course work with them and try by earning their trust and through months of hard work, (this is what im dong with my handshy linnie) and even then you may never get to handle them. Even getting a handfed baby doesnt mean the baby will want to be handled.
If you have any more questions feel free to ask!
