I got a new 12 weeks old Brahma mix today! I can't quarantine much over 3 weeks.....is that bad? I might be able to quarantine longer.....
Is there anything I can do to help her get used to me and her new surroundings?
I'm giving her ACV in her water. I might give her sugar water tomorrow.
I really need her tame before she gets to be with my other girls, but today was not a good time because she was so stressed already. She sometimes pecks and hisses at me because she's so scared. At least I'm hoping that's the reason and she not mean.
She also doesn't want to walk around much. I'm pretty sure that it's just stress and stuff.
She came from a farm where all the chicks weren't handle much and so she thinks that we're great big monsters.
I know that when I got a parakeet a long time ago I would go, sit by his cage, watch and talk to him......is that a good idea to do with my new girl? I checked on her (it's night time) and she was asleep. She didn't even wake up when I turned the light on. I think that she's very tired from her stressful day. What should I do to help?!
