This morning, i wanted to work on the harness with Yoshi, and he let me do it with very minimal whining. I was so excited that i immediately rewarded him with lots of praise and kisses on his head back of his nape bit higher closer to the head. Quickly took him on front of the yard and a little walk around the driveway. A little less than 5 minutes. At first he wasn't sure what was going on, after reassuring him that every thing is ok he quickly realized it was fun going on a little walk.

Sorry didn't get time to take pictures, didnt want him to fuss with the harness on. Will do it again later on today.

I feel so excited!!

Congrats! Very few get as far as you have on the first go at it. Big Smile your way! :D
Last night was actually my first go at it, but didnt put it over his head, more like letting him get to know it. I will consider myself lucky and a privilege that Yoshi let me get that far with him.

Jim, Yoshi looks a bit like a BFA but Mama says that he's a yellow shoulder , like Salty.

Something odd though, YSA are not supposed to get the yellow legs until they are older, in example, Saltys are still all green. Yet Yoshi's are certainly showing yellow. YSA are horn colored beaks, yet Yoshi has streaks of black.
And Yoshi's shoulders are really showing yellow, and again thats not supposed to develop until they are older.

Al, i know seems weird right?! I kept asking if he was a blue front mix. But they kept saying that she was a yellow shouldered. I got a hatch day certificate and the vets confirmation that he is a yellow shouldered. There is also red in his shoulders as well.

Well very soon, your YSA will be in full Adult color and at that point; all will be confirmed.

The only way a Vet should confirm is if that Vet is also seeing the Parents.

What does Yoshi weigh?
And if you dont mind, where did you get him from?
Regardless, he is a cutie and smart too.

No not at all. He is at 230 grams now. And i got him from Todd marcus birds exotic. Yes at this point i dont care what he is anymore... love him too much.

This morning i was cleaning a bunch of his toys and the bathroom door was open ( toilet seat down), he saw me in there cleaning his toys and he got down from his travel cage ( he chilling on top of it) and walked that amazon walk and perched himself on my foot 😂😂😂. My boys were like " mommy birdie down, birdie down!".
