Nitro is about 2½ years old. I know what youre thinking:
TERRIBLE TWOS!!!! RUN!
Well...youre right lol.
I got Nitro a few months ago from a family who got her for their 11 year old daughter and had owned her for about 2 years. Well, at 13 the girl didnt pay much attention to her anymore so they put her on CL, which is how I discovered her. So now, being separated from the person shes been with for 2 years plus the "terrible two" thing and going into a totally new home, you can probably guess how handling her was...
Ive had her for a couple months and shes a totally different bird now, but she still bites (not as often) and sometimes steps up. She definitely has attitude. Ive clipped her wings (for now) and wont let her above eye level to help reduce some of the aggression. She has plenty of toys so her beak stays busy when inside the cage (which is rarely).
Does anyone else have ideas on how to help calm her down? Is this really just a phase that will pass?
