Hello everyone! I've recently gotten a new lovebird which I've had for about 5 days. The bird is of course afraid and skittish and is scared of my hands. Although the bird is not afraid to take treats from my hand, they will reconsider if they have to step on my fingers to reach them first . This makes it incredibly hard to bring them out of the cage to get some exercise and interact.
I know the pet store I bought it from would often grab the bird with their bare hands whether the bird seemed to like it or not . I'm hoping someone can give me advice on how to gain my lovebirds trust from where I am now. Thank you!
