Message-ID: <14147@wpi.wpi.edu> Date: 23 Jul 90 11:57:19 GMT Reply-To: shari@wpi.wpi.edu (Shari Deiana VanderSpek) Organization: Worcester Polytechnic Institute, Worcester ,MA Lines: 11 I just got a new cockatiel to keep my old one, Tyrone, company. He's not finger trained, and Tyrone is. He freaks out when I go near the cage - I desperately want to calm him and get him used to me, but he bites like a savage. :-) I tried using gloves when handling him, but I'm afraid I'm hurting him. Any suggestions! Thanks! ********************************************************************* Shari Deiana VanderSpek, College Computer Center, Fuller Laboratories Worcester Polytechnic Institute, Worcester, MA 01609 shari@wpi.wpi.edu
