In the last couple weeks we've hit some major milestones with our two lovies here. Sonnet, or Baby, or "MYbird!" as my daughter now calls her, has gone from just letting me get her to step up, to letting me touch her while I held her (but only if it was just one finger!:rotfl ), to letting me give her scritches through the cage bars without chomping my finger, to now taking seeds/treats from my fingertips!:happy:
and....!
The notoriously hands-off! Friday (riding around on people's heads is one thing, hands is quite another!), is getting curiouser and curiouser as he watches all these goings on. I might even say he's getting a bit jealous :D Although he's still a hands-off! birdie, he has started holding his ground when I try to feed him a treat through the bars. Before that sort of thing was immediate grounds for the fastest flight to the furthest point possible away from me, and of course, the oh-so-loverly Shrill-Warning-Shrieks-of-Imminent-Doom.
One of these days he might actually decide I'm not going to eat him after all ;).
