So I just adopted my two year old sun conure named Merri from a friend. There she was given fresh food and water but was given lots of human interaction time.. She has picked up a few words here and there and seems very friendly. She would step up and give kisses. My friends had to move so I adopted Merri yesterday thinking she would be like how she was back home. But I tried to pick her up once and she bit me. Not hard but it was enough to show me that she wanted me to back off. She's very friendly when In the cage tho. She talks to me and interacts fine. She's eating and drinking. But she just doesn't want to step out of the cage at all. I own four budgies and another conure. They were all very friendly when I first adopted them. Now I know I need to give her space and I've backed off since then and I am just waiting for her to get used to her new home. But my question is, when do I start working with her and will she just be a conure that doesn't want to be interacted with? Where do I go from here. I really do love and care for her and am willing to give her the best life possible.
