It's been weeks now, I spend at least 45 min every day sitting at a comfortable distance away, speaking to her, and will approach now and then with a favorite treat. I hope eventually she'll come around, I miss having her sit on my shoulder or in my lap while I'm on the computer.
I remember when we adopted her in January, she didn't speak. Her previous owner had told us that she'd never spoken a word. Within the first month we had her saying 'pretty birdy', 'hey bird', 'I'm right here', 'come here!'
She hasn't learned any new words in a while though. She is very afraid of ropes, strings, cords, and anything in the shape of a stick.
