Hi!
Im a budgie novice. I got my first budgie a few days ago. Its still only a young bird and am wanting to tame it. I have been sitting near it and putting my hand in for a few minutes. Today we had a breakthrough. It allowed me to stroke its belly and then stood on my fingers for a minute or so a couple of times now!
however...As i approach and also when its on my hand it bites me all over. It doesn't seem aggressive and does not hurt at all. But I am unsure what this behaviour means.
Is it testing out the "new object", or is it that the bird is frightened? As I mentioned this is all new to me so want to know if I should back off or just keep going with what Im doing?
thank you
