Very proud mumma right here!

During one of her laps of the house Piper flew into my bedroom and got stuck in there. After a bit of beaking and soft growling I reminded her "you've done 4 laps around this room piper, you can't find the door, you're just gonna have to trust me if you want to get out" lol, and she finally stepped up onto my arm.
It took a couple of tries, but she finally let me carry her out of my room back to the living room where her cage is.


What a brave girl. So proud of you right now Miss!!

Parakeet named Blue. Adopted from a Humane Society 5 years ago.

Kirby Cockatiel adopted from a humane society 2018.

Also a slew of other small birds that span my entire childhood.
Nice progress... On the RARE moments mine has landed on my shoulder I always had a nut dish (SMALL BITS) that I hold up to my shoulder for her to munch on while we walk back to her cage. It keeps her happy, me safe, and keeps the experience VERY positive. Perhaps next time she takes that step up you could walk around a moment and treat her a bunch!

Good work. Now that Piper knows your arm is OK to stand on, try doing some step up exercises.
