I decided they are the pets for me. Only problem is I wasnt expecting them to be so scared of me, every time I open the cage they just flap about and wont let me anywere near them. I know it does take time and I am willing to give them the time and attention they need. I am just looking for a few tips to help me make them see I am not out to hurt them. I think having a pair that are as strongly bonded as Charlie and Sky is going to be harder, they just seem to make eachother worse, one gets scared then the other one does too. Yesterday Charlie flew out of the cage by accident and would not let me near him to get him back in, all he wanted to do was get back to sky who was still in the cage so i left it open and he spent 15 mins walking round the cage trying to figure out how to get back in because he wouldnt let me help him. Does it get any easier because I cant seperate them to train either of them, they are attached at the hip, they wont even sit on different perches in the cage. are there any ways to do this properly? I dont want to go too far and start intimadating them by scaring them instead of trying to be nice. Any help would be great!! Kim
