i have a IRN baby about 2 months old. he started flying last week,but now i m facing a problem as after eating a bit from my hand he just looks at top and flies to the topmost part of that room.and doesnot comes back himself but if i put my hand there then he easily comes into my hand but after sometime he flies again. and doesnt likes to sit on hand. is there anything i could do to stop him from flying to top,as i want him to sit on my hand???

Rio (Yellow sided conure) sadly no longer with us
birds feel safe up high, he needs to fully trust which will just take time. Plus he is a young flyer and flying down is tricky for birds. give him time and good experiences with you and he should become more relaxed with you

This is a natural part of him growing up; he is just learning and growing. Just like a human child who learns to run and loves it, he is learning to fly and loves it; don’t worry, it’s healthy.

I agree with the above(s).
Hey, the Rb *STILL* flies away to get away from my clutches! The only way I get him down is with his favorite treat... a green chile. Finding a completely irresistable treat is very helpful!
Your bird sounds just darling... and mischievous!

It will take time for your IRN to feel comfortable around you, when I first started
letting mine out of it's cage it would spend the majority of the time at the top of the
curtains.

With regular interaction and by letting it set a pace it was comfortable with it was soon
spending most of it's outside time within a few feet of me.
