[jimmy101]

hey everyone,

i play with my IRN (RIO) and have tried to train him some things...

the problem is that he eats everything without any problem but whenever i try to feed him with my hands he does not eat anything!!

how do i know what his favourite treat is and after finding it out,how should i make him eat that from my hands!!??

To find out his favourite, you can put all his treats in a bowl and see what he eats first. Usually they will eat the favourites first. Then you would never offer that treat unless it was from your hand. It takes a lot of patience but if you can wait longer than him you'll get it.

You can also show him the treat and if he doesn't want to take it, drop it into his food bowl and walk away. Eventually he should at least come to the bowl. Just a small step from there to eating it from your fingers.
