Wont the bird get annoyed of not getting its food treat when its time for a reward? How do you make sure petting it and spending time with it would be enough? I also let my bird come out on its own. I usually feed him in the morning and he's always happy to see me. Most of the time he hops out of the cage when I open it. Sometimes he won't step up. Should I just target train him outside the cage as a first step? And can I do the taming exercises first so I can use that as a reward instead? I have bought your clickers and hope to start training him soon.
