New IRN bluffing stage

$

Hey! I had recently purchased an IRN from a local pet store that specifies in birds. I’ve been wanting to get an IRN for years now, and have done countless research on them... but now that I’ve had him for almost a month now, it’s hard to get him to bond with me, and I feel like an awful parent even after countless research. He gets very VERY defensive when I get near his cage, as in, opening it up to reach inside and try to get him to step up. He hisses and lurches at me.. but when he’s outside of his cage, he’s very lenient and likes to climb up onto my finger. I don’t yell at him or flick his beak as a punishment, if anything, I do my best not to react so he knows it doesn’t really faze me.

Anyone with IRN’s, I need some tips from personal experience to bonding with your bird!! Anything would help. I want to make sure he’s comfortable with me! If possible, I’d like to make this an ongoing thread with some updates...I hope to help my Booger out with trusting me. I know this can take months on end, especially with IRN’s, but I want to make sure I’m doing it correctly :21:
