Do Quakers not have any fear?

Mjhandy · Apr 24, 2019

We rehomed a 4 year old CAG two weeks ago. He's got some hand aggression issues we're working through, and we've been very carefull with the two birds.

But Thor the quaker has no fear. Size difference doesn't matter, he wants to 'meet' Gandalf. Gandalf backs away, but that doesn't seem to deter Thor.

Like I said, no fear.

QP's "ain't skeer'd o' nuffin." Quakertude, it is for real. With Consuela, my QP, hold something over her head and she will look at it with her beak WIDE OPEN. It is all bluff (most all of the time). She is really a little sweetheart. Okay, Consuela, you can let go of my ear now. ;-)

Apparently Bluebell didn’t get the memo, cause he’s such a scaredy-bird about the weirdest stuff sometimes. Like chip bags, the vacuum, my mom (that one might be justified lol)... although once food is involved, all bets are off!

Thor doesn't mind the vacuum or the dogs. The laundry basket, yeah, that needs to die.

Oh, and grinding coffee, bah, that's nothing.

Most things don't scare Ralph, but when the vet recommended switching to a water bottle, Ralph decided that bottle was the biggest threat to parrots everywhere. The second-biggest threat was a parrot toy that was a large bright green plastic ball with brightly colored plastic straws sticking out of it. He's definitely not afraid of Scooter the CAG, but he's not interested in being her best friend either. Mostly, he just tolerates her, while Scooter is fascinated by Ralph, and is learning how to be a parrot by watching him.

Frisk fears just about every parrot toy that i bought him, and those which he doesn’t fear, he ignores &#55357;&#56834; lol. But hey, he doesn’t fear any of the foods that are dangerous to him, and doesn’t think twice about charging at my feet when i’m not looking, not afraid of being stepped on or kicked &#55357;&#56834;
