- Mexican Green Conure
I adopted a 7 week old, hand fed Mexican green conure two recently. While it was being hand fed, is very very afraid of humans outside of feeding time. I think the previous owner fed the bird and basically ignored/stayed away from it otherwise. I’ve done a lot of research on helping birds bond with and become more comfortable with their humans, and a lot of what I’ve seen says to not touch them and let them get used to you on their own. However, I’m not sure how to do that with this bird because 1, it’s being hand fed which requires a certain level of handling, and 2, it’s a baby so I don’t want to miss any window of opportunity for socialization. Do you have any recommendations or tips?
