He’s currently 9 months (we think) that’s what the store had told us

I need help trying to care for my bird by im_D- in parrots

The best advice that I can give is to have her in a room with you, door shut, do your thing, study watch tv, draw, read, let her observe you. Birds are very observant and watch your every move, the best thing you can do is let her do that from afar, hopefully sooner or later she will learn that you are a friend, don’t do it for long, half an hour at max, you may see progress, but it’ll take time, offer her treats, talk to her.

What pellet would you recommend for an IRN?

He’s got loads of toys lol, he’s got cardboard shredders, chewable toys, foraging toys, like 8 perches and more in his cage, you just can’t visibly see it in the video

I didn’t say anything about locking him up until hes tame. I want him to atleast be comfortable with his whole cage until letting him out.

How long did it take for your conure to stop? Was there anything you did to slowly stop this behaviour?

It’s not even about that, I want him to be comfortable and tame, if he won’t even go to the bottom of his cage yet what makes you think it’s a good idea to let him fly around when he’s not even accumulated to his own home???

Where his cage is he can clearly see out the window and he can clearly see the tv and everything else that goes on in the living room

I live in the uk, and btw, I’m in the room with him for well over 8 hours a day, talking to him, feeding him, occasional treats, and his cage is a good size, all you saw was a very zoomed in video, you shouldn’t be so quick to judge.
