Hello everyone! Just joined the other day. I'm Rain and my bird's name is Tialu (tee-ah-loo) - he's a 7 y/o Patagonian Conure. I've had him since he was old enough to leave his flock (aka his kind breeder and her lovely family, human and animal alike). He's a good bird.. though admittedly we are not as bonded as we could be. In the beginning years things were fine. But some years back I ended up developing various illnesses to where it was hard to have the energy to do anything asides from rest in my room whether it be due to mental struggles or pain, both, etc. I'd still care for him, of course.. feeding, cleaning, providing toys and occasionally letting him out to play. Just not nearly as much playing and bonding as I would have liked. Despite that he's still been such a sweetie, though he has grown more timid with me compared to the past..
I still struggle with illness, to some degree worse than before, but I've been trying really hard to do better for him despite my situation. Recently updated his lighting and toy setup and am trying to relearn parrot topics for a fresh start. I try to bring him out at least every evening for some bonding time and I would like to work on training him once he's ready, as well. I've been watching parrot channels on youtube (mainly "wingsNpaws" and "BirdTricks") and with some browser searching I came across this forum, as well. I wish I had thought to look for something like this sooner, really. So I look forward to speaking with everyone and learning good things here!
P.S. The bird emojis are very cute, lol.
