That's one hungry little bird.  ;D

Handling and exercise, letting Henry jump from my hand, up and down movements to encourage wing flapping....and gripping.....(loading now)

He learns fast!  Still sounds like he's demanding food from you sometimes.  Does he get syringe food after he has a lesson?

He lets you know when he's really wanting it.....but the hiss is one of his self protection noises too....almost a universal sound... ;D....you can tell if defensive, he crouches a little, and sways...when hungry, he stands tall and opens wider .... ;D

I understand now.  It's in his body language.  Learning this stuff is cool.

Henry's cool... ;D  the young are always so full of 'newness' to life...they all bring out the tenderness in you...I remember, I think, feeding Jan's baby finches with a toothpick...she'll correct me if I'm mistaken..
we had one with a stiff leg....so we cared for, and fed him all the time....except for a little trouble holding onto the perch...he had no problems when grown.... ;D...he was our hand tamed l'l finch.. ;D

My cockatiel used to hang head down from the top windowsill. She'd do that wing spread, sway back and forth act while staring down at us. We used to call it her eagle act...tough girl stuff.  ;D
