I am new to the site and just read all your posts. Thank you all for your contributions. I am about to adopt a Hyacinth from a friend. She is 13 and very tame and loving with her owner. She views me with suspicion. But is willing to get on my arm and spend a little time getting to know me (as long as her Mom is around). My instincts from training other types of birds ( Cockatiels and Ringnecks) were to give her time, treats, and lots of visits before the transfer.
My next question is inside - or outside - or both????
