My son's girlfriend Dee, :63: is staying over for a few days during the holidays.
Whenever Dee went near Mishka in her cage, she ruffled her feathers and tried to nip her.
Dee was petrified, I think more so than Mishka.
Mentioned to Dee, she must gain your trust first.
Every morning Dee offered Mishka some dried corn flakes.
Gradually Mishka started taking them through the bars of the cage.
Dee stroked her own head, then eventually Mishka's head.
While on her feeding perch, Dee was feeding Mishka yoghurt with a spoon.
They then began to shake hands, and had the occasional kiss.
During dinner tonight (Mishka had eaten already) she climbed off the playpen, walked up to Dee and said yummy yummy please.
Their latest game is now showing each other their tongues.
LoL Now we have to put up with them saying each others names all day !!!!
Just proves, once a bird has gained your trust, you can become best friends.
Take care
