I'm sure you've all heard it before and I didn't want to be one of those unprepared new owner cliches but.....
Owned a cinnamon conure for 3 weeks now. Bought her at 2 years old from a couple who sold her due to work commitments.
She's tame and social, sweet and affectionate when she wants to be and a ball of destruction and decibels the rest of it.
I'm not naiive, I knew they were work. Ok maybe I am naiive because she seems to be the boss of us, not the other way round.
I guess I've probably done a lot wrong without intending to.
The problem is, my partner doesn't like her, she doesn't like me and she LOVES my partner.
Shes fully flighed, never been clipped, and won't come near me.
I'm desperate to begin to train her but don't know how if shes never with me.
My partner wants me to sort her out asap. Now im stressing cos hes losing patience.
If i dont get somewhere soon i think shes gonna go for his sake.
I'm such a cliche and feel like a failure. Not the companion bird I'd imagined, yet I know she has the potential to be.
