Sky is afraid of my hand still overall, but if I slowly put it in his cage with some millet, his new addiction to millet seems to win out.
Well, tonight I made him work a little harder for it. He couldn't stretch out quite far enough to reach it while keeping his balance, so he had to put a foot on my finger (as was my intent)! I'd say I got a good 30 seconds of foot time, and about 3 seconds of BOTH feet!! He got so much millet for that.
I'm sure that tomorrow I will have to work back up to that point again, but this is amazing progress! It gives me some hope that he will eventually like me. He's only been home since April 14th! And he's no youngster

That's one small step for a budgie.... Makes for one giant leap of the human heart. Good work, krystal. Never underestimate the pulling power of the millet.
