Conure taming

[Williamsonsophie]

So I have a baby conure, I’ve never had one that I’ve had to tame myself before, I’ve been sitting by his cage just gently talking to him and he’s started giving little chirps randomly now, I’ve been putting my hand in his cage and taking it away once he realises I’m not going to grab him. Today I put my hand in there with some bird seed on my open palm, he sat on his perch and reached into my hand to retrieve some seed, he was comfortable enough to do this for a good 15 minutes, he was sat close but didn’t step onto my hand. Is this all positive signs xx

That sounds positive to me! Have you read this thread? There’s some strategies in there to try. My biggest recommendation is to just take your time, and watch your bird’s body language (which it sounds like you are doing). http://www.parrotforums.com/general-parrot-information/49144-tips-bonding-building-trust.html
