I finally did it

[cherokee]

I finally got casper & Jasper to go onto my finger outside of the cage, I am so proud of myself. If I do this 3 times a day for a while I think they will get the idea. I guess the phrase "Monkey see, Monkey do" is true. They saw me holding Passion earlier and I guess they thought it looked like fun. :p
Here are some pictures of me holding them, one of them hiding in the corner before I held them and 1 of passion with her ball on top of her cage.

Passion aint camera shy, is she? I love her cute little face looking into the camera. Well done for getting Casper & Jasper out of the cage!

When I took Casper out again last night, she kept biting my finger, it hurt, but I did not yell at her and didn;t jerk away, I just dealt with the pain, she didn't draw blood, it felt like someone with sharp fingernails giving you one heck of a pinch. But she stayed on my hand for about 10 minutes. I am going to work with them more again today.

That's rather usual. Good job!

[hector the budgie]

well done!!!

[cherokee]

well, just spent time with each of them seperate. And I spent more time with casper and she gave me a kiss a few times, then she bit my top lip, it hurt guess because of more sensitive area, but I didn't jerk or yell. I put her close to my face the last time and told her to give mama a kiss and she did, I was so impressed. I think I am finally getting somewhere with these guys and gals. Will do it again later this evening and will get my son to take more pictures.
