Lucky will perch on my finger most times on first try. Some times she will fly to a spot she likes to step from. I have done this with out food treats. Well today I wanted to get her to eat millet from my hand and she did not like that at all. I left it in her cage so she can learn to like it and then see it next time on my hand.
I am guessing the open palm was what she did not like. I will have to work more on that. When I work with her, my dog now sits and waits for her reward for not barking. Is working most of the time.

How long did you wait with your hand in the cage? It may take some time, but she may warm up or be tempted enough for the seeds/millet in your hand. Make sure your hand is also very still and flat. Anything else can feel like it could close in on them.

Anything else can feel like it could close in on them. I am not sure why she reacted that way. When I clean her cage she ride on the back of my hand, helping I guess . Maybe it was just her getting used to the other side. Not really concerned about it as I am way ahead of my expectations.

Sounds like Lucky is really coming along! Can I have some more pictures of her for an early christmas gift?
