Hi!
I got my about two days ago , and its starting to get used to the new cage and everything, hes about 3 months old and eats properly, only thing is i dont really know how to start training him.
When i open the cage, he eventually comes out and then wants to step up on my hand and walk around above the cage and etc, but it has really bad balance atm and doesnt really know how to climb.
If he starts to fly he doesnt know where to land and usally it ends up in him crashing into something.
Anyways, outside the cage hes pretty weaned and does not bite (nor does he bite when hes inside the cage) but hes kind of scared of new people and it wont get up on my shoulder, it feels like its very unsecure and shakey. But when hes inside of the cage, when i reach my hand in for him to pet him he is like walking away and just trying to stay out of my reach..
its no biggie now since he can eat treats and play with stuff too chew, what I want you guys to do is to help me with a few tips.
IF i could get a scheduled plan on what to do, recall, target, clicker, flight training and such to get him weaned (getting him on the back, not being scared of new people, train to talk) and also in which order i should teach him and train him...
I have tried to clicker train him but so far i dont know if he has understood the point of the click, i treat him with dry annanas but maybe i should switch to something else.. He eats nuts and stuff you know the things you can buy at the store, but then you wet em up and then feed him.. He also eats corn and stuff like that, but so far he hasnt touched my pellets...
Hopefully we will bond successfully as he seems to trust me by now, but only when hes outside of the cage.. Also i have some trouble to put him back in.
So please experienced parrot owners! Give me a few tips on what i should start with and what i should think about..
regards.
