How to tame aviary bird...

[jess.reco]

Just need some tips guys... I just bought a male eclectus who's only ever been in an aviary....

Ive got him to the point of sitting on my arms fine. He cannot stand my fingers though. He keeps attacking them and going back for more. I think it's gonna take patience. ..

Yep, if you just got him, pretty much everything is going to take time..and patience.....

Good luck.....

Its all good I don't mind a challenge; )

I'd recommend a good magic kit. Once he sees you make a rabbit disappear he will realize there's no bargaining with you.

Haha too funny.

Im actually amazed with his progress. He now is more than happy to sit on my shoulder. He'd rather be with me than be in his cage!!
