Hi, I posted for the first time here a few weeks ago. I appreciate everyone's help with Joey my Cherryhead Conure, she was screaming, not social, she had lost interest in everything. NOW, Joey is back to herself. She plays, she will come to me again, she's talking again, she's Joey!
Petey the Cockatiel, we brought little Petey to live with us when my husbands mother died last summer. Petey was never given much attention, I would say no love. I know he was screamed at a lot by my mother in law and brother in law. They didn't want Petey to sing or even to jibber jabber. He was never worked with, he doesn't talk, bless his heart, he didn't look good when we got him. I'm guessing Petey is about 12-14 years old. He eats really good, he loves his food here. He has started playing most of the time now, he wouldn't play with toys when we got him. He had never had toys. I've helped him to like his baths now and he seems to love it. He sings now. He is so handsome, sweet, we love him so much! I hope we can hold Petey soon. How could all of you advise me on this one. Getting him to come out of his cage and let us touch him? Since he's this old and has never known this. Thank you all.
