Hi,
I wanted some advice on my Indian redneck parrot, Buddy. I have had him for 2 months now and he’s 7 months old, however he’s very scared of me still. I know ( from what I have read) this is quite normal and I should be patient. The only thing I have managed to get him to do is go on a perch when he flies off his cage. He’s out most of the day and I have managed to get him to fly back and forth to get food just to get him use to my presence. The minute I put my hands near him he flies away.... he’s very playful and makes a lot of noise too but I’m just wondering how I get him to be more tamed. I had an incident yesterday where I was trying to take him upstairs I managed to get as far as the stairs and then he flew off and hid underneath... I put the perch underneath but he made a hissing noise quite a few times and then a loud scream so I knew this was annoying him so I left him to come out on his own and then I managed to get him in the cage. I have the feeling that without his cage he is even more scared? Do I just be more patient or is this anything I can do?
