Not done anything with him today,only fed him. He was laying down on the floor this morning when I went to check him. Threw him a skinnned and gutted chick and he got up onto his block.

He sounds lovely, I didn't think they'd lay down. I am not sure what I thought really

But he sounds really sweet.

Not sure I like the sound of a skinned/gutted chick though

Been in and picked him up today. Managed to get him to stand on my fist for about 30 minutes but he refused to eat. Left him with a chick head and legs just to keep his digestion going.

30 minutes you must have strong wrists. Nice you have handled him, he'll eat when he's hungry i'm sure

He is absolutly gorgeous!

Hey...

This bird is really very beautiful...
But what is the matter with its head???

He is wearing a hood because he isn't tame yet. The hood keeps him calm, what he cant see doesn't upset him.
That's where the term "Hoodwinked" comes from

Fed on the fist for the first time today
Tomorrow I will do the same but hold the food tighter so he has to work harder and spend more time with his head down to eat
