No, no, senegals are not aviary, they are always companion but, if you were sold a parent-raised bird you do have trouble taming them because they are not imprinted to people so, although they can become your friends, they never develop the deep bond of the hand-fed ones. The other possibility is that the bird was, indeed, hand-fed but that they used gavage instead of syringe -and that messes them up something terrible!
