Hey there all!
New member here who has assumed responsibility for an Orange winged Amazon who is roughly a year and a half.
It is highly sensitive to all my movements and any attempts to approach the cage results in her becoming defensive and alert. She thrashed and went into a panic, bit and drew blood from the shop owner when he placed his hand into the cage. Her cage was in poor condition and it's evident she hasn't been catered for and possibly traumatized.
I aim to give it a good quality of life and was wondering how I could overcome her defenses and gain her trust and even one day amicability....
