Hello friends,
Gus, our cherry head conure who we inherited after my moms death on 11/4/2019, will allow me to hold and pet him, but only when he wants me to. No matter what, if I put my hands up to his cage, he nips at me. He does not like anyone else. I’m glad he interacts with me the way he does, but it sure would be nice if he’d eventually stop with the nipping and being moody. Might this ever happen or should I not hold my breath? I’m not sure how interactive he was with my mom bc when I visited her, the focus was always Jasmine the Cockatoo, so I didn’t really learn as much about the conures she had, as for personality, tendencies, etc
