Hi all,
So this is Zazu and he (guessing, has not been DNA tested) is a 4 month old GCC. I brought him home last Saturday 10/16. In the past week I have let him chill out and tried my best not to bother him, he's so cute it's hard. He started taking treats through the bars on Tuesday, from my hand at the door Friday and has done a little target training.
He still is very timid around my hands/me or even stepping up onto a stick if I am holding it. Also if he's out of his cage he flys back immediately as soon as he doesn't have a treat. He is still new so I'm not too worried.
I am curious on how long it took your babies to warm up to you and if you have any advice on what to do to get home more hand tamed. I am finding lots of conflicting info online before I picked him up and still.
He also has only taken one bath that I am aware of. Figuring out how he prefers his baths.
