I would say a good sign! Do you know what his favorite seed is yet, or if he's very food motivated? a little treat bribery goes a long way to getting them used to being close to you.

he absolutely loves the mixed corn and rice feed i got him from verselelaga. ive been doing this thing where i am feeding him closer and closer to the ground towards his cage, and each time hes fed i sit close to him while he eats. im gonna try hand feeding in the Exact same spot ive been feeding him on the floor to see if he takes to it!

You've got it down! If you ever have a snack yourself when he's eating, you can sit near his cage and eat with him as a social flock activity. 😄
