Best answer:

Answer by read, write, be merry
Your bird is probably still afraid of the outside world. I would suggest getting his wings clipped so he can’t fly everywhere before you do anything else. Then I would suggest getting him associated with hands as a good thing, instead of something to be afraid of. Feed him some fruits or treat of some sort and maybe try to pet his chest a little while he eats. soon you should be able to get him to come out of his cage by you, and eventually he will be tame enough for you to handle him. the key is persistence, and patience. take it little steps at a time.

Train Your Parrot Like Professionals

Training pet parrots has benefits that extend well beyond the entertainment value of a parrot that can talk and do tricks. Training will strengthen the bond you have with your parrot, who will look forward to the one-on-one attention involved in training sessions, especially when success means lots of praise and attention along with favorite treats. In addition, teaching some simple commands will make handling your parrot easier.

Always remeber these 3 points :-

1. Parrot does something good –> give a reward

2. Parrot does something undesirable –> ignore it

3. Never punish your parrot

Make the training area safe and secure. Close and cover all windows, and try to make the room bright and cheerful without making it overly stimulating. A quiet room, away from his/her cage is also very important.
Communicate to your parrot that these training sessions are fun! Talk to him/her and even offer (very) small treats. Generally, treats are used as reward for behavior, but especially with an apprehensive bird, a little food can go a long way in convincing your pet that this is fun.

NOTE:
* Train only when you are relaxed. Positive training does take patience!

* Pick a time when your bird is attentive and not distracted by eating, preening, or household activity.

* Frequent, but short, training sessions are generally more effective. A few minutes at a time, several times a day, works well.

* Pick a favorite reward (but don’t overdo it if it is food).

* Once your bird catches on to something, don’t give a treat every time (switch to praise part of the time) or your bird may only do the behavior if he/she knows you have a treat handy.

* End each session on a positive note. Wait for a successful attempt or at least a good try at whatever you are training, give a treat, and move on to something else.

* Keep training sessions upbeat and fun for your bird.
While maintaining a calm and happy voice, slowly move your finger towards your bird. Gently press your finger against the lower stomach and say, “Step up.” Most birds will step up instinctively when something is against their belly, so learning this skill usually takes just a few training sessions.

Practice every day, and try to practice at the same time (or as part of the same routine) every day. This helps your parrot anticipate your special time together and will also help him/her remember more from day to day.

How to make them *like* a harness? Your bird will have to get used to it gradually. From what I hear, the Aviator Harness is popular, and when you buy it, it contains information on how to help your bird adapt to it. Here’s some more info:

Fluent Feathered Friends: Train Your Parrot to Speak Like a Pro

Contrary to what many believe, teaching your parrot to talk is not particularly difficult. It simply requires dedication, patience, time, and—above all—a loving relationship. There are many techniques and methods than you can use to train your parrot, but the one that has the best success rate is the simple process of repetition.

The first step to take in training your parrot is to build trust. When you bring your bird home for the first time, give him some time alone in his cage. There are a lot of things for him to get used to… a new cage, a new environment, new toys, and new people. Heaping too much on at once can cause stress and lead to bad habits. Let him get used to his cage, and his new room, on his own.

Once he’s had time to adjust, start to spend time in the room. Don’t approach the cage just yet, and keep activity and sound to a minimum. Avoid startling the parrot at all costs. After your bird seems comfortable with your presence in the room, you can begin to go over to the cage and talk to him. Don’t open the cage or try to touch your parrot just yet. Speak to your bird in low and soothing tones, and do not attempt to remove the bird from the cage or touch it.

It won’t take long before your bird will be comfortable allowing your hands inside the cage, and eventually allowing you to pick them up and handle them. Once you reach this stage, you are ready for speech training. Try to devote and hour or more per day to speech training. Start off with words and phrases that have hard sounds, such as “P”, “B”, “D”, and “T”. These are easier for a bird’s vocal chords to enunciate.

If you notice that you lose your parrot’s attention partway through the session, try to switch to shorter sessions multiple times per day. For example, instead of one hourly session, try two thirty minute or four fifteen minute sessions each day. Repeat the word over and over again during your training times. When your bird starts to respond by attempting the sounds, be sure to reward with praise and a treat.

Once your bird speaks his first word, the doors are wide open, and you can begin to teach him many new sounds and words. Remember, though, not to try and introduce too many new things at once. You can easily build a very large vocabulary of words in a reasonable amount of time.

Above all, love your parrot. Give them lots of attention and spend quality time with them as often as possible. It’s the best way to ensure that you have a lasting and meaningful relationship. Show your bird love, and they will return it to you tenfold. Being a parrot parent is one of the most rewarding experiences in the world!
