yes kiki is really going for it now,eyes pinning and lunging at my hands she hasn't bit me sore yet but I am only allowing her kisses first thing in the morning as she gets a bit nippy as the day goes on.I tell her no kiki and try not to look frightened but I am having to be very carefull around her...

kiki loves me to stroke her also but heaven help if i try to use my hand i have to use my mouth or nose lol....

had to leave kiki alone today for few hours,she is not a happy bunny on return,i left her a millet spray her favourite treat but when we came back she was none too happy and attempted to bite me.I stayed still and it did not develop into anything much put she was really not happy.I am at home every ...

thankyou danni that is exactly what I told rhiannon,I thought she saw herself above her in the pecking order lol,but mind you the poor kid says I speak to kiki more than her,but then kiki is sweet with me.Will try harder to get rhia to stay still and build on the trust between them. Thanks all for y...

kiki had a broken feather and I was adviced to cut it at the break but i didnt want to upset her so i left it and it dropped off when she was on her gym.Saved me being the bad mummy.lol

Kiki is doing very well but has started nipping a little at my little girl who is eleven.Of course because she bit once rhiannon is hesitant when she puts her hand up and pulls it away if kiki opens her beak.She will step up from me to rhiannon but not from anywhere else.She does not bite sore just ...

now and again but not regular,I encourage the arm,but she likes to preen my hair so sometimes she sneaks up especially if hair is wet.

she is gorgeous,she has that cute kind of shy look.Good luck to you all.

Beautiful pictures,thanks for sharing them.

Try putting your perches,food dishes and toys into the cage and then look at it again and you will have a better idea if the cage would be suitable and remember to check which way the bars are running as tiels like to climb.I had a round cage once upon a time for tiel and it was hopeless as they cou...

pomegranate but it makes her so active,she normally likes to go to her sleep perch 7pm last night she was climbing around until ten and the seed juice was everywhere.Her other love is banana chips and cheese although she tries most things,she tends to throw the veg about a bit,a little sweet red app...

kiki is left handed

wow what beautiful pictures,that is one gorgeous dog

kiki makes a laser gun noise,is that screeching,she also chatters away a lot and sounds like a kitten at times,she sounds like she is saying clever girl and if you say it she says it back.She can get loud at times when she is chatting and you respond and she gets louder and louder then does her lase...

Hi sarah your bird is still very young,it is a bit scared of you,hands are pretty scarey at first,just keep spending lots of time talking to it and singing and making a fuss,some take a long time to build trust.Dont give up, things will get better.I spoke to kiki a lot around the cage at first and t...

Today kiki put her beak to my lips and sort of kissed me when I made a kiss kiss noise,she then took a banana chip from my mouth and then from my hand.She normally shys away from food in the hand.I am really pleased with how well she is doing but am unsure what to teach now,she steps up when asked,g...

Hi londonlad he is gorgeous,tiny but lovely.You got a name yet? Training is going okay with kiki she has become a little stubborn last two days,stepping onto my hand but off just as quick,I just kept on and on and on,you need loads of patience,she kept flying to the curtain rail and trying to eat th...

This afternoon we built kikis gym.photos on www.dropshots.com/cubagold we are very pleased with it and it cost us about 15 u.k pounds.The longest process was washing and drying the fresh logs,we used willow which we collected.It took my husband and I a couple of hours to put together and I am sure k...

Thankyou athena that stand is brilliant,got some great ideas from it.We are going to give it a go later on today.

I want to build a stand come playgym for kiki as my arm gets sore with her sitting on it looking out the window.I have been surfing the net looking for plans but haven't found anything great.Does anyone know any links or has anyone made their own and wouldn't mind posting some pics to give me some i...

I just got my baby a week and a half ago and he is twenty weeks,he was not tame when I got him as he was parent reared.I just sat and spoke to him first day and then spoke with hand in cage.I took cage to another room with no distractiond and took him out and started doing step up with him.I just we...

Hi londonlad wondered how the visit went today and if you have named your baby yet.My kiki enjoyed a strawberry today and so did the curtains and the walls,she is a messy tyke.She sat and groomed her feathers on my arm today.She is coming on a treat,hope you have as much luck as me.jane

Hi londonlad,great advice from everyone here,they are as everyone says very different birds,clever,I left kiki alone for the first night and the next day I just spoke to her all the time with my hand in the cage, she is stepping up now and likes looking out the window on my arm,thats when I chat to ...

Just found out kiki is 20 weeks old.I think she is a very fast learner.

I am not sure how old kiki is but she was removed from her parents about 4 weeks ago due to plucking then looked after for a few weeks inside to make sure she was eating well before she came to me. Have had a brilliant training session this morning,now when she is on the playstand if I put my hand i...

She was rather baldy as her parents plucked her but her feathers are coming in nicely now. She is doing well but her new cage arrived today and it is huge,she looks lost in in and is a bit confused.I had been taking her upstairs for training but the new cage cannot be moved so I had to attempt in th...

http;//www.dropshots.com/cubagold I think I have worked out how to show some pictures.The date on my pics is not correct,my camera keeps switching date when batteries run down and I cant figure how to cancel date.Recieved kiki on 13th june.

I am not that good on pc and have no idea how to post pics on this site any tips please. jane[/img]

Hi everyone I got my albino ringneck baby kiki a few days ago and she was not hand tame.We are making great progress and she will now sit on my hand and step up from stick to hand or hand to hand. I also have a lovebird called Hartson who I have had for a month or so,he was in my aviary but the othe...
