Tried letting Bianca get on the floor again... no progress

[sunshine.within]

Ugh. I thought she’d finally just walk around and explore...
instead, she once again became nervous and would have attacked my feet if I hadn’t picked her up and put her back in the cage. Also, while climbing down my arm she dug her beak into it and hurt me
Not sure if she meant to hurt, hopefully not.

She’s also not very fond of me lately, no idea why. So sad.

Toos are unfortunately prone to attacking feet. Wear stout shoes if she's on the floor. My Rocky only gets on the floor so he can scurry over and insist on being picked up.

What is she doing that displays being "not very fond" of you? Maybe we can figure out what's going on.

She used to do a little parrot dance and pick up her left foot whenever she saw me, to tell me that she wanted to come onto my shoulder.

Now she just stares or gets further away from me on the branch.

Maybe she’s mad that I tried to shower her the other day...

Maybe she's just having a mood. Let her have the freedom to decide she doesn't want to interact right now and wait for her to ask for attention.

Yep, I’ll leave her alone...

Toos are tough to live with, no doubt. Rocky will sit on top of his cage and scream and scream, so I'll go offer my arm and he won't step up. Nope. Well, I thought you wanted attention? "I do, I just don't want to step up." LOL Mind you, he can get on the floor and come over to me if he wants to. I think he just wants to watch me beg him to step up. Think of a too as a 2-year-old who can be a GIANT brat and often is, but you love 'em anyway.
