Instructions
Step 1
Parrots do not like to be touched, especially if you put your palm on top. The bird regards this as an attempt at attack by a larger predator and therefore may shy away from your hand to the side. To tame your pet, start small. However, this process is long, it will be difficult to master the technique at one time. First you need to accustom him to your hand. Do not try to grab the bird; offer your finger to roost it.
Step 2
If your parrot can climb on your hand, on your finger is very good. Otherwise, to prepare him for this, hand-feed the bird, talk to it. Make the first attempt at touching at the moment when the pet sits on your finger, on your palm. Gently stroke the abdomen on the left or right side with your fingertip. The bird may like it. The main thing is not to rush things.
Step 3
After the "tummy" zone has been mastered, he can try to touch and stroke the parrot's neck from different sides. But don't put your hand behind the bird's head. Lightly tickle her feathers on the left and right, even from the bottom. Try to lightly touch the wings, which will make your "Kesha" shout and flap them. Talk to the parrot during contact. It is very good to feed him something tasty from your hand before the process. If he likes to be touched, then most likely the parrot will make chirping sounds.
Step 4
When the parrot begins to relate normally to touching the stomach, neck, wings, you can stroke it on the back or head. Try to do this gently, with your fingertip and first on the left or right side. Do not raise your voice to the bird and try not to make sudden movements. Try to keep your intonation friendly. If he nevertheless decides to leave his hand and fly away, do not be nervous. Calmly call him and lure him to yourself, demonstrating the food.
