Ok so I posted in here earlier about a neglected bird situation.. any who on to the next question I suppose... Jackie is roughly 12-13 years old and as far as I know has never been trained or even handled except for a SUPER rare occasions that I get her out. (shes not mine and I dont really like her lol but I am the only one she will "listen" to so I guess shes mine now..) Im working on her screaming.. shhing and "too loud" for 1 or 2 warnings depending.. then half cover then full cover till she makes a 'nice/happy' sound. Also shes terrified of hands, but will step onto my shoulder. Ive started feeding her, her fav treats by hand a couple times until she threatens my hand. To let her know that my hand isnt to be feared.. anywoot.. my question is.. Being this old and this far along.. if I spend a good 2-3 hours a day working with her, how long (estimate of course) till I should see good results? I will wait to teach her to dance or talk to me lol.. my main goals are to teach her that she cant boss us around by screaming, to not fear hands, and hopefully to stop dumping her food.. THANKS!!!!
