Hello Friends! good news on the Geordie the Meyers Parrot front.
For the last few days he'd been very stand-offish. Didn't want to step up at all, not for me or anyone else. We let him be, took it easy on him. Yesterday I left his cage door open for a long while and he did come out briefly and hung out on top of his cage while we were there, but then he went back in.
I made one last attempt to get him to step up and come out of his cage and-- he did! reluctantly, but he did. I had him on my shoulder for a short while and then my husband came and sat next to me and Geordie went to him (stinker). BUT-- he let me REALLY pet and touch him while he was sitting on Rick-- I was able to scratch him and stroke his head and back as much as I wanted, for the first time! It was really wonderful.
cheers!
