On December 8 I brought home a new bird, my first Green Cheek I've officially owned named Anzu.

Anzu is still very young and he isn't terrified of me, but doesn't seem to quite prefer handling yet. He lets me do it, but will jump off shortly afterwards in most cases. I feel like Anzu has potential, as when I'm doing things or when I'm talking with another person he will walk up to me or make noises, I just want to raise him the best way possible. Any advice so far?

My other bird is a cockatiel (Aries) and I got lucky with him lol. He really loved hanging out with me from the start where my green cheek seems more reluctant to take chances.

I prefer using a clicker. There are other methods, but this one works best for me. I begin with clicker conditioning, target stick training, then flight recall. Everything I have done stems from there. I am in a pinch right now, but can give a longer response and answer questions here in a bit. Good luck!

Barbara Heidenreich is the go to for bird training for me. There are some other names on YouTube that are good. The key to training is a good diet.
