Jackson may be feeling his oats (so to speak) and learning how to use his beak. When he goes to beak you, Move your arm away and turn your head and say "I don't like that" in a normal tone of voice. He also uses his beak when he is climbing etc and may use it to climb on your hand or arm? He still doesn't know his own strength so he has to learn how to use it. As far as cuddling and giving him kisses, he may not want to be touched at that time. Maybe you can try at another time like when you are sitting down with him quietly and he is getting calmed down and ready for bed. Spock is still trying to establish his independence and still bites sometimes (LOL) Hope this helps... Maggie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malikah Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 It's a tightrope walk isn't it? LOL! Kito likes to "play bite" she gets all silly and bites her own leg and then wants to gently bite me. If she gets a little too much pressure I just tell her to be gentle and then she will put her head down for scratches as if to say she is sorry for playing a little too rough. I love her.

Jayd Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 thanks spock for putting on the pics...do u think he has to many toys??? Like Spock says, you can never have too many treats, too many seeds and too many toys...ha ha ha... I say, just keep an eye out for those he doesn't play with or like and put them away for a later time. Maggie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Jackson is so adorable Tanya and you do have lots of toys for him to play with, I like the way you have some on the outside so they are not all inside taking up valuable space, looks good to me, you have done a wonderful job with him. Thanks Tanya for the pictures and thanks Jay and Maggie for posting them for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayd Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 (edited) IF Cricket is looking skinny, and also acting lethargic, and she sleeps a lot, tell Crickets mom, Cricket has to go to a VET NOW! Raise the room temp! Give Cricket "PowerAid diluted with distilled water!!!!! And keep feeding formula AT LEAST 3 TO 4 TIMES A DAY!! If she's not feeding Zupreem Embrace formula, start now!!!! Please keep in contact!! keep a eye on Jackson's weight!! Your Friend Jayd P.S. Thanks JJ'sHoney!!! Edited June 26, 2010 by Jayd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayd Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 Thanks Mama, Your doing all you can, do you know why cricket fell? Try to get your friend to take Cricket to the vet. Don't worry that cricket is smaller then Jackson, Grey's come in all sizes! Try some papaya like Cheyenness, Do what your doing. Jackson's fine, I noticed his crop was full, Do me a favor,tomorrow, after you feed him, see how long it takes for his crop to empty? His biting should stop as he gets older, when birds play with each other, they get a beak full of feathers, we don't have feathers, so it hurts.lol Tell Crickets mom to pad the bottom of the cage, put newspaper over the towel, change the paper when it gets dirty!

tanyab Posted June 27, 2010 Author Share Posted June 27, 2010 good morning.. well. not sure why she fell and no shes not taking her to the vet.she says shes fine...im to the piont that im ready to wash my hands of her about cricket bc she will do what she wants with ehr and im just wasting my breath with her...i hate to sound mean about it but i tell her things and it gets me nowhere. she thinks that cricket is weaning her self from her am feedings and that shes fine.ok i will watch jackson today with his crop to see how long it takes to empty....i do thank you so much for all ur help..jackson is doing good..

judygram Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 Tanya you can lead a horse to water but you cannot make him drink, you have done all you can and it is up to her now but she sounds like a know it all who is going to have it her way or not at all but I hope Cricket will do ok and I never have to tell her "I told you so" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayd Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 Mama, no one can ask anyone to do any more than you have. Don't give up on Cricket, keep talking to her mom. Tell her mom to try a little plain yogurt, Try a dad of peanut butter on the end of a spoon! Let me know what Jackson's crop looks like before his last formula feeding.

Spock Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 Thanks Mama, that's great, good Mama, good baby!! Jackson's really changing, huh! Watch his eyes from now until around a year old, it's amazing. Anytime you want to post photos, just send me some. Luv Jayd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
