Is it true if you dont handle your tame parrotlet daily it will become untame?

Question

i handle mine daily and socialize him but is this true?

He is bonded to me :)

Answer 1

I think this depends on how well bonded and trained it is at the time and how often you pay attention to it after that.  I would hope everyone would spend as much time as possible with these loving birds, but yes I believe it is possible for them to get angry and become unfriendly if ignored for long periods of time.

Answer 2

Depends

Answer 3

Not really I have a green cheek conure I have to ignore some days otherwise I myself get no rest from the bird it is such a sweet cuddle bucket. But it is happy sitting and pooping on my shoulder all the time, and I can't blame her, I mean, I am cute in the eyes of birds LOL!

Answer 4

I have heard it a lot.  Even if it isn't true, it does help get the bird attention in life and makes it happier.  Maybe they mean if you don't handle your bird for a year or so then it will become untamed.  I still suggest you handle your bird daily.

Answer 5

No.It's a lie.
