Got him a bigger cage and he wouldn't come out

Postby Cozzy » Thu Apr 08, 2010 8:28 pm

Got my :senegal: "little V" a bigger cage last week, after settling in the new cage and he would not come out of the cage as he used to.
Once you got him out of the cage, everything went back to normal. he would performance his tricks as usual. The problem is now it is much harder to get him out of the cage then before.
What could be the problems??
Thanks

Just needs time to settle into the new cage. Try to use targeting to target the parrot out of the cage so it would get more used to coming out and exploring.
