I have one in quarantine myself at the moment as well lemonora. A very scared little girl that jumps out of her skin when I speak to her. I sit next to her cage st times and yesterday she remained on the perch nearest my chair for about 2-3 minutes looking in her mirror while I was browsing on my phone seemingly ignoring her. Believe it or not that is progress, just being near me. She won’t approach me for millet and is just so timid. However, I just have a feeling that the progress will happen when she joins the other two and hopefully she’ll gain confidence around me albeit slowly I reckon. |

He's lovely, hopefully he will come round and start eating soon. My Eric will not touch millet. He is frightened of it.  I give greens and seed in a dish. Give him plenty of options. |

Thanks Hezz:) he is around a year and a half, sadly I can’t touch him, he is not tame, but I really want to try to tame him, I know it will take longer but i think it’s worth a try, right? Spyro sounds beautiful  I hope mine gets fat as well |

Yeah sounds just like mine hope they get comfortable soon, and yeah I’m also looking forward to him joining my other birds hopefully things will get better soon for both of us |

He is lovely lemonora, has he a name or have your re-named him? Beautiful colours, you will soon fatten him up a little once he gets used to his new loving home. |

It is always worth trying to get them used to you and your needs. What I have found is that each time I have lost a bud, the others' attitude to me has changed, even if only for a short while. Their relationship with you is not a static thing and gets to evolve over time, sometimes you don't even notice it happening until a particular occurrence brings it to your attention.
