Post: Baby Alexandrine parrot

Posted by Lynne on 8/02/08

I am confused by my new parrots behavior. He/she is a 4
month old- weaned - hand feed Alexandrine. She is very shy
and is clearly not comfortable with hands - she is not
happy to step up and acts alarmed when approached. HOWEVER
when she is held she is so content she falls a sleep. She
will let me hold a stroke her for hours. Why is she so
confortable in one way with contact and so shy with
another. What can I do to help her? Lynne
