I just rescued an 8 yr old green quaker from a very neglected household. When we got her home she was almost black from smoke and filth. We have gotten her fairly clean but we are having a hard time getting her to not fear us.(we have only had her 1 month, and have no prior bird experience.) I have lots of experience with snakes and reptiles, so I understand that exotic pets need special care. If anyone could give me ideas on how to socialize her that would be great.
Aside from this she seems healthy, very active, eats and drinks fine. and really enjoyed being sprayed down and splashing around. Sadly, by her looks, this was the only bath she ever had that wasn't in her water dish.
Thank you.
P.S. I'm only assuming she's 8yrs old because her band reads AAC 261 m 02
