Hello, I have had three budgies for over half a year now. I have not been aware of how to handle them, and I have been forcing them into my hand (I thought it was okay to hold them, I did not ever put pressure on their chests). I kissed them with dry lips and put them back after a few seconds.
I am horribly ashamed of my behavior, and I feel just the worst. I will never ever force companionship with them ever again, I loathe myself for scaring them. I was not aware of how I was traumatizing them. I have no idea how, in my research, I failed to come across handling details.
I am trying my best to gain their trust. Is that even possible it this point? I love them with all my heart, and I would like to have a trusting, mutually beneficial relationship with them.
I would like to know how to deal with this, as all three are very afraid and run when I put my hand in their cage. i cannot take them out like I should due to their instinct to run from me. I feel absolutely Ashamed and horrible, and would do anything to heal the wounds I have created.
