Landing on me


My bird keeps flying over me like he wants to land on me but then just keeps flying. Maybe he’s not comfortable enough with me yet or he’s just unsure. What can i do to make him feel like he can land on me.


Answer:

Hi,

You really can’t tame a bird when he is allowed to fly around. Taming and training requires an understanding of behavior. I’ll give you the links to our behavior page so you can better understand your bird and our training page so you know how to go about training. Otherwise he will just be a bird that flies around and might land on you occasionally.
