Greetings,
theres been a month and some days since i brought home Trico, a Monk that the previous owners threw in the trash in a street where i found him.
Theres been a lot of things that happened but mostly im a bit disheartened and i thought of making a thread maybe to have some suggestions of even advise by some seasoned members.
Trico was extremely frightened of me and my wife at the beginning and since then he isnt afraid of my wife as much, he even stays near her face(inside the cage) while she speaks to him. He takes some millet from her hand way easier than me. Last few days he doesnt take ANY of my hand, and he is extremely afraid of me AGAIN.
There was a betterment of him behaviour towards me since the beginning but the last few days its like nothing happened and we re back at square one.
We cant take him out of the cage, we cant train him cause he is afraid of EVERYTHING we bring to him( except in some cases he isnt afraid of the millet), and i dont know what to do.
He seems to have selected my wife as his owner and he looks at me like im gonna kill him while in her presence he relaxes.
I keep him close to me when im on my PC and he relaxes after a while but on the other side of the cage.
Sometimes i feel ill never have a relationship with him and to me it will be a pretty bird in a cage (((
Is it possbile his brain is dysfunctional because at this maturing years he didnt eat healthy?
Anyway, sorry for my rant.....
