Thanks! As you can imagine it hasn't been easy.I have the scars to prove it. There were days when I thought 'What have I let myself in for' Habib was also a neglected bird and was traumatised by kids in his previous home. He is still very unsure of hands and fingers and ony steps up onto my arm or fist, which is fine with me. I am afraid he has become a bit spoilt and won't allow anyone else to pet him. I am working on this problem now and he seems to be playing along.
