ok first of all take her to a proper vet that is not attached to a pet store and get her wings clipped.
then put her in her cage and leave her for a few days because getting her wings clipped is going to be stressful at first.
then buy some millett sprey and put it on your hand and open the cage door. place your hand in the cage and wait ...... soon enough she will nibble on the millett. continue this method for about 2 weeks.
That is the first step to hand tamming a birdy.
second step:
using a stick or your finger, place it under your birdies chest gentliy lift your finger till she is forced to hop on. then once you have her on your finger dont move. see how long she stays on for.
after like a week of the finger method you should now move your finger SLOWLY out the cage door. the bird will get frightened at first and hop off.
try it again the next day... and continue till the bird gets successfully out of the cage without a struggle.
Third step:
takeing the bird out of the cage everyday should be a habbit. your bird will get accostomed to it and need you to play with him/her..
with your birds wings Clipped you may place her on the floor and let her explore her soroundings for the first time *Suppervised*. NEVER leave a bird out of its cage unsupervised.
Fourth step:
getting bird on your sholder can be hard, but once they under stand you are a friend then they love to walk around the house with you and nibble your hair...
Just take your bird out of the cage and using the "hop" method, get the bird to transfer to each finger.
sooner or later you will be able to do this "hop" method with your sholder instead of your fingers.
I wish you all of the luck with your new birdy friend. I have 3 birds Cheeko *cockatiel* Spanky* Budgie* Spring *budgie*..
