First, Baby likes to be stroked except when it comes to running my fingers down to the tip of his tail. He is very irritated by that. Is that a natural thing, maybe due to the fact that he uses it as his protective weapon? After a few times he settles down a bit and doesn't mind too much, so should I continue doing this? I'm trying everything possible to tame him and so far the suggestions that you guys gave me last week have done wonders!
Second, I see a lot of people talking about dandilion greens. Are they available in the store, or are these from the yard. I know that sounds stupid, but I'm trying to variate his diet a little more. I tried a tiny piece of orange for the first time this morning and I swear, if he could have made a face, he would have! He just kept licking and licking. I don't think he cared for it too much but I put a few small chunks of it on his perch so we'll see. Well, enough said. Looking forward to your replys....Thanks!
