Hi everyone, this is Ryder. He's (?) been a member of our family for two weeks now.
We're new to parroting and looking forward to Lee learning from all of you.
Ryder is a very intelligent bird who's pretty cage territorial. He's learning step up onto a perch and has learned a few new whistling tunes the last couple weeks.
I was told he is an Amazon but from what I've read his tail says otherwise. Anybody know for sure from the photo?
Ryder seems to have an intense hatred of my hands and I fear he may be a vampire. He's got a penchant for blood.
We're slowly working through that with a few tips I've read online.
Aside from step up, we're starting clicker training.
From what I can gather Ryder is over four years old and spent much of that in his cage, he's been enjoying having his door open daily and he and my mastiff are becoming fast friends.
