Hi,
I weigh Solo every few days, his weight has been going up and I think it is now too much ?. He is 420 grams.
he can fly around the room a couple of times. But when he lands itās not a gracious alighting, itās a definite plonk on your shoulder.
he is hugely food oriented and we have to put him away when we eat because he gets aggressive and tries to steal our food and bite us. (Heās never been fed from our plates) the only food Ive shared is a couple of bits of fruit for breakfast when he is calm. He doesnāt stop eating.
Anyway this week he has become very grumbly and growls at most things I do. He bit my hand quite hard on Tuesday because he didnāt want to get off my shoulder. unfortunately I did a knee jerk response and said ow quite loudly, managed to shake him off and he flew away high pitch shrieking.
He also defended the towel I use on my lap sometime.
He knows what No and ow means. He often refuses to step up, by freezing and just stares at me, then when I walk away he flies & clings to my shoulder blade So I canāt reach him very well. He is 8 months old.
I just wanted to know does this all seem normal ? I keep working on the step up.. but itās more food, which is partially why I think he has put on weight. Iām not sure what to do.
