[@michellegibson3899]

You have done it you freinds. Love you and Sophie.

[@QueAquatics]

I love her so much! She is coming around and starting to trust me

[@SimplyBetta]

"... me. I'm the biggest issue." Well Just by recognizing that, you're doing so great!

[@tiffanyrosea.i.t.9239]

I love how patient you are with her. It would've been cool if she learned to sing your theme song. 🎶👍🤗

[@QueAquatics]

as many times as she hears it, I am sure she will be learning it

[@tiffanyrosea.i.t.9239]

@@QueAquatics that's awesome 👍 She seems like an amazing companion with an amazing owner. 🤗

[@elizabethpolyak4522]

She is showing so much improvement. More trusting and sociable. Well done, keep up the good work.

[@QueAquatics]

Slow and steady seems to work for her

[@Cookiz4dark]

Love how patient you are with her and the fact you recognize things you are doing wrong , gets a double thumbs up from me!

[@CaylorsReptilesAquatics]

OMG I lost track of time and drank coffee too late. Was literally up all night and have to volunteer 11-5 at the Ark today. However, this was one of many many vids I watched while never falling asleep. It was educations watching you and her work together. VERY intelligent bird and very motivated by attn from you. Thanks for the night cap lol.

[@QueAquatics]

Thank you so much Bob. I so love her

[@stevenbutcher4177]

can i have the receipe for birdie bread plus the scrambled eggs etc .... want to see her breakfast with eggs! love the videos

[@QueAquatics]

Her favorite thing is to eat with me too. I use Ezekiel bread now with out butter. And eggs right from my coop.

[@vampgaia]

Awwww she’s a pretty girl and very smart! I see much improvement since your last update.

[@QueAquatics]

Thank you Ginger, this was only the 2nd time I saw her bathing so I feel better about the she does just not when I am looking

[@GlamBeautyTV]

I just got a severe macaw today!

[@QueAquatics]

OMG!!!! this bird has changed my life. We are both starting to trust each other

[@GlamBeautyTV]

QueAquatics I’m in the same boat as you! My severe is a rescue and I’m his third home (and last!) He has major trust issues, but hey, who doesn’t? It’s only our first week and he’s already stepping up, trying super hard not to over do it and spoil him.

[@AQUAFUNK]

DAAAAANG HAS IT BEEN 6 MONTHS ALREADY????

[@QueAquatics]

Sure has been

[@raidertyler4594]

I plan on getting one soon but I need to know a good seller/donator breeder can anyone give me a heads up? Thanks

[@QueAquatics]

I adopted mi e but was originally sold from a NJ bird store

[@DowntheWormHole]

Nice! Lots of time for sure! Don’t touch my bell!

[@QueAquatics]

hahaha, she yelled at me

[@Anonymous-fj2uo]

How are you getting on today with her?

[@QueAquatics]

She still to eat her meals with me. We train all the time except when she is hormonal. She is free flying and lands on me and likes to hang out with me. She is a part of the family for sure

[@jenalamp4125]

I have a severe macaw I got a month ago. He so far has not allowed me to step him up. It has just been hanging out on his cage and talking to him. I want to do target training but his diet is awful. I have been trying to get him comverted to healthier foods but so far, he hasn't been down for it. How was Sophie with eating when you first got her?

[@QueAquatics]

She only wanted nuts and pizza crust, it was crazy and slow transition to a chop salad in the morning, pistachios for training and organic pellets I got from Bird Tricks in the evening. But it took me chopping up pistachios and stirring them into her salad for a while

[@carly9961]

Can u cut the pis nuts into smaller pieces

[@QueAquatics]

Great idea... she got mad and bit me and left the piece alone hahahah she is too spoiled.

[@AQUAFUNK]

Q TEACH THAT BIRD HOW TO SAY "IM FUNKY FLY"

[@QueAquatics]

I will work on that phrase
