My orange winged amazonian is really scared first day at hom

[Pajarita]

There is a sure-fire way of getting them into the cage and that's to make the room dark with soft light shining only on the cage which needs to have his favorite food in it. Birds always go toward the light and food.

All the advice given is good. But you definitely have to try to get him to eat healthier. It takes time (I just got my female Senegal to eat her leafy greens after a year of trying) but it happens. Especially with amazons which are EXCELLENT eaters. Try fresh corn on the cob lightly steamed. I don't know a single parrot that would not eat that from budgies to macaws! But don't try just once, keep on putting the food in his cage and keep on eating it in front of him. And don't leave the seeds in it when you do, save them for his dinner, because given the choice of protein food or roughage, a parrot would always go for the protein.

I definitely gotta agree there, an all seed diet is bad, not only for your bird's overall health, but it also eats away at his attitude. Corn on the cob is an excellent choice, and so are carrots, sweet potatoes, cooked pasta, lettuce, and broccoli... most birds will love broccoli, but you may have to eat some in front of him then "accidentally" leave some behind.. Almost all parrots can't say no to apples, but the seeds are toxic to them just as they're toxic to us (high cyanide content), but apples, pears, pineapples, coconuts (fresh) and grapes are also a favorite. All my birds will eat raisins like crazy too... especially the golden raisins, but speaking of dried fruits, you can try him with raisins, dates, pineapple, papaya, cherries (both fresh or dried), apricot, pretty much the same things you would eat when it comes to dried fruits. There's also a good variety of dried veggies that they'll eat like dried zuccini, eggplant, and various squashes, but they prefer the fresh stuff best, I didn't mention fresh zuccini, squash, or eggplant, but they do love it.
Hard boiled eggs are good to feed them too, just in moderation like maybe once a week or less.
My (sure fire) foods for a finicky parrot are sliced apples, broccoli, sliced yellow squash,or corn on the cob (no butter!) popped popcorn (again, NO butter!, and no salt) is also a favorite that you can share with your bird, they can smell it and it makes them curious enough to steal it from you right out of the bowl.
Once he does tame and become friends with you, you can share food with him which will be rewarding for both you and the bird, but offering him of the stuff mentioned above might give you another treat he'll put his guard down a little to get from you so it could become an important tool for you to use in his taming process.

BTW... have you seen any progress with your bird? even the smallest progress is progress... I do have another idea if all else fails, it's about 75% reliable but it does require a friend who owns a tame bird who's willing to bring his bird to your place for a few hours... it's called role modeling, but basically, you and your friend handle and play with the tame bird in front of your bird which shows him there's nothing to be scared of. This still takes time and some consistancy, but it may speed up his taming to a certain degree...

I agree 100% with the 'role model' approach. Parrots are highly altricial and learn all their behaviors from their parents and flock members so their brains are wired to learn from imitation of other birds.

i tried to feed him apples. he didnt even bother. he just kept calling me with a strange voice he always does this voice when he wants seeds. he didnt quit it till i gave him the seeds. i also fed him seed cause i was afraid he would starve himself so i said what the hell.

[Dave & Karen]

Yeah, they can be quite finiky and unwilling to try out new foods... You may need to try out several different things before he'll even think about trying it himself, best way to do it is by eating what you want him to try in front of him and acting like it's the best food you ever ate, then finally offering him a bite.
One thing I've done with our amazon since she's 10 years old and we really didn't know all of what she liked other than what the previous owner left with us to feed her, she would sort thru the food and eat all the sunflower seeds but nothing else, or just eat once out of her bowl then act all hungry the next day but her bowl was full, I'd pour the food back into the bag and put the same food back in her bowl, then she'd finally eat the rest of the food, but I'd have to repeat that process of putting her food back into a bag and pouring it back into her bowl.
Basically you're fooling your bird into thinking you're giving him new food which will cause him to want to eat but it may or may not work. If you absolutely can't get him to eat other foods, you may need to have a vet look at him and give you some better advice or something that'll help boost his appetite enough to eat other foods when the sunflower seeds aren't available to him.

You can also see if he'll eat the safflower seeds since they have a similar taste but not as fattening, and if you can find him some hemp seeds (most likely available from a health food store), most birds love these and will practically mug you for some.

Just keep trying different foods with him tho in the meantime, hopefully you'll find something he'll eat other than the sunflower seeds. Again, having another bird to play the role model might help his willingness to try different foods by letting him see another bird who likes whatever you're trying to feed him eat and enjoying this food in front of him, if you can find someone with a similar ( doesn't have to be the same breed, but close to the same size and tame would be ideal)bird to help you.
