Unhappy New member

Hi Introducing myself. I am currently located in RI USA. I have one cockateil, Sydney who we have had for 11 years, a canary named BB King whom we have had now for about 3 months and a rescued Lovebird that has been here for only a few weeks. her name is Peekaboo, and she is the main reason I joined the group. She was rescued from a owner who could no longer care for her due to illness. She supposedly is only 3 years old. And right now she hates me. So I am here to hopefully get some help on how to help her adjust to her new surroundings. I know she has had a traumatic change, but hope to help her get comfortable soon.

Hello & welcome to BB. It will take time for Peekaboo to learn to trust you. U can sit next to her cage & talk to her softly, read to her, etc. Try treats, worked for me. Some say you shouldn't bribe but Patience is the key. Crystal
