Re: [parrot_chat] hello everyone ..i am the owner of a mccaw parrot

Hi Judy,
How wonderful that you have adopted a new bird.
Parrots need a few weeks to get used to their new homes.
Speak softly and offer lots of treats. You will help create a bond so she knows you are the treat bringer. And she will start to trust you.
I would love to hear how you found the bird and your progress.
Christa

NO! Spraying a parrot in the face with water is not recommended and is not a positive healthy way to stop biting! We want the bird to enjoy water and...
