Well what a day
Mojo was getting crazy this morning when i headed upstairs to the office noisy as i had to head back downstairs the moment i walked in the room all good silence.
I work for local goverment and most of my day is generally spent on the phone today however i was free this morning ( not gettin call after call ) as i am involved in a new project so could sneak downstairs and indulge my girl.
There was some gentle nibbles and the half step up and then some bites that i felt, as soon as she bit i said No she sat up as i had raised my voice she stepped of i removed my hand from her cage and gave my finger a wave saying no bite Mojo naughty.
I then went again ground hog day nibbles and then bites i had read something @Mizerly ( dont know if i have tagged correctly) had posted so i blew on her she was well and truly shocked i.told her again bites where naughty and then.went again.
She nibbled but wouldnt step up i went back to work. No noise no fuss ( note to self i need to get out of bed 30 mins earlier.to spend some quality time with Mojo before work ) i spend time with her feed her but no 1 on 1 interaction i feel she is asking for this and thats why all the noise.
This will only be a short term problem i hope as once i have earned Mojos trust and she is out and about she will be coming to work with me.
I then got stuck work late I normally spend some training time with Mojo once i finish work after cleaning her cage and then i feed her fresh veg.
As i was late by a good hour i sorted her veg fed her she chowed down and then she went crazy loads of noise and jumping around the cage.
I had the football on tv ( you might all call it soccer ) huge game for my team however i knew she wanted to play.
So cut some pieces of grape ( her favourite )
Opened her cage she straight away moved across to her platform perch that is directly.at the right of her door.
I tapped the perch i wanted her on and said Mojo go there she swiftly run around her cage and stood on the perch.
Then groundhog day one foot nibbles then bites tell her she is naughty.
And then she stepped up both feet on my finger got her treat stepped off and enjoyed her treat.
I then offered my finger again didnt even need to ask her to step up she just stepped up gave her a treat she stepped off and enjoyed her treat.
I cant say i havent wondered if i was approaching this the right way when i have seen posts where people have brought birds home have them out of the cage and stroking them and interacting with them from day 1 however i couldnt be happier with how things have gone with my Girl i have said earlier in my thread i need to earn her trust i would like to think i have now.
Loving the journey.with my girl
Looking forward to Saturday when i open the door of her cage and see where it go's
More step ups tommorow
