Hello everyone,
My wife and I fell in love with a Sun Conure the other day. It seemed to instantly bond with me, and didn't seem to feel one way or the other about her in the store.
We got him home and he was super affectionate to me. I went to hand him over to my wife and he clamped down hard on her finger and drew blood. Pretty sure he was laughing.
Anyway, I am buying a clicker today and some treats to start clicker training him and I plan on slowly trying to get him to come around to her. He starts freaking out and shaking anytime she enters the room. Can't have that!
So I was wondering if anyone had any similar experiences and/or had tips for this kind of behavior. As I said earlier, I will be clicker training him, but the more help the better!
Thanks!
