Spike got treats from my boyfriends mom for christmas, now she is eating out of my hand, i've tried it before but she was to scared. If i stick my hand in the cage when she is on her rope perch she will take the treat, but if she is on her other perch, where there is that little plastic bird, she will bite at me. She probley thinks that little bird is her friend and that im going to hurt her.

Now should i try teaching her "up" with those treats?

And good news, my mom said she is looking for cages for me, so im sure il be getting a new one for spike this weekend.
