Hello
I have 2 blue Quakers in my aviary. But all they do is squawk allday. and both scared of me they fly around me sqwaking when I am in the aviary or even when I go near the flight when I let them out no one can go up to the aviary to see them they just sqwark and walk away to the top out of site . How do I tame them to come to me and stop that horrible sqwarking so people can go up to the aviary with out them been scared of flying away
Hop someone can help me

How long have you had them, and how old are they? It would help if you could put them in seperate cages and work with them individually, just make sure that they can still see each other (housed next to each other). If they are housed together in a large flight, they most likely will look to each other for company and ignore you. It sounds like this is what is happening. Once they are used to you (step up dependably, take food from your hand - and eat it, for example), and this could take some time, you might be able to put them back in the aviary together, but you will still need to work with them individually to reinforce (and hopefully increase) your bonds with them. I hope this helps! I would encourage you to come over to the new forum at www.quakerparrotforum.com if you haven't already. This forum will be made read-only soon.

If you choose to rehome them, make it clear that they are bonded to each other, but the female has not laid any eggs while you've had them (so you don't know if they are proven). Good luck!

davey Newbie New Members 4 posts 0 warning points Country:england Posted Today, 12:41 AM How much do you think I will get for them Like This Quote MultiQuote Delete Hide Edit Report #7 [2 New Blue Quakers: post #7] msdani1981 Love My Pets Senior Forum Manager 3,319 posts 0 warning points Gender:Female Location:Bellingham, Washington Country:United States Posted Today, 12:53 PM I don't know...I just did a search and found an ad for two proven pairs...one was for a blue female and green male in Bolton, Lancashire asking 300 pounds and the other was for two greens in Desborough, Northants asking 199 pounds. There's another proven pair, blue male and green female in Gloucester, Gloucestershire asking 320 pounds. So you can get a rough idea. Since yours aren't proven I'd ask a little less. I hope this helps. Okay, since I see you made the switch to the new forum I'm going to lock this thread.
