I have a breeding pair of african blue masked lovebirds and they are really scared and nervous around me. When i come near their cage they fly around in their cage or drop down to the bottom of the cage trying to avoid me when i let them out of their cage i have to catch them with a net because they don't come to me or they don't go into their cage by themselves. I need help on how to tame my birds can u help? P.S i got them about 2 months ago.

Took me about two weeks to a month to finally bond with my 1 year old bird. Now every morning he waits for me to open up the cage so we can play.

Hey, I have a Parakeet and he can go on My Hand, but how does he stay ON my hand? I've tried to do this a couple of weeks already, but it's not working. I do treat him whenever he gets on my finger, but i can't seem to take him out of his cage, he always retreats to his perch,etc Help?

@iiDemonicDoll Parakeets can be tricky since they are very flighty little birds. Sometimes it comes down to the demeanor of the bird but otherwise it will just take repetition and continued positive reinforcement, such as the treats you mentioned. There is no magic answer with birds. Good luck!

@sangam061289 You may want to try different versions of veggies. Maybe start with dried or dehydrated. Start him off slow and work him up to fresh. The key is to do it slow and be patient as bird need to feel comfortable before they will make the change.

An adult bird will be harder to bond with but with time and patients it can be achieved. Both male and female temperament will depend on how it is raised, boys will be a bit more nippy in the adolescent years, during the breeding season.
