Hi! I'm new to the forum and could use some advice. I have had birds in my life was trying to find a hand fed baby but didn't find any in the area. We did find a beautiful rescue CAG ..no leg band, no idea how old..was told he was a breeder. On his toenails is missing but it looks like a tip is there. He Doesn't growl. He peeps once and awhile and I did hear him say hello twice.But he isn't into talking yet. I do make him come out of his cage by opening the top. He will step up on my hand and I take him to his play stand perch. He will take a grape from my hand but doesn't want me to touch him. He will bite if not distracted when I have him step up..He does try to fly away but his feathers are clipef. He steps right up from the ground. He must have had a bad diet. He doesn't like pellets. Mostly sunflower Seeds and nuts. Doesn't like vegetables. Although at dinner time he did eat mashed potatoes, rutabaga, and cooked butternut squash.i cooked a sweet potato he didn't like that or cooked egg..I don't won't him to be cage bound. we've had him about I month.. what should we be doing to get him use to us ( we are both home all the time) and to get him eating a better diet?
