Echo is a yellow sided green cheeck conure that I got from a friend of mine who was moving away. He is very violent and aggressive and will only step up onto my finger if I gently use a stick to step him up first. He will not whatsoever step onto my finger he will however come charging with his head down and beak open and then bite. His last owner had said that he was plucking before but all of his feathers grew back in and then he came to me, he was with me for maybe two months then started plucking again. He is on a hookbill supreme mix from Omars Exotic Birds and he has fresh fruits and sometimes some cooked rice every day. I made him some foraging toys and bought him some too and I put toys in his cage that he seemed more interested in. The avian vet had said he’s completely healthy, he is due back for an appointment next week although I just feel as if I have let him down.
He gets about six to eight hours out of the cage and I do spend some individual time with him in the living room doing his favorite thing which is watching tv but I just don’t know if I did something wrong towards him that he doesn’t like me or that he dislikes someone else in the family and isn’t comfortable with them. He seems to have stopped plucking for now because there haven’t been any feathers at the bottom of the cage but I just wish that I could comfort him the way I do with the others. He has been muttering bad words to particular people though but when he’s around me he’s quiet except for the kiss noises he makes towards me.
