Re: IRN doesn't want to leave cage with both legs
It probably makes him feel a bit more secure to be close by the cage in case of something happening. Although they're captivity bred, they're still rather wild and it's just their natural instinct to be cautious.
By the way, he would need a different cage, that one is too small for him.

Re: IRN doesn't want to leave cage with both legs
They may not be in a country where it's easy to find a cage. If that is the case, you probably want to encourage some bravery from the little guy to get him to come out of the cage..with out his little leg holding onto it.
![]() You are doing the right thing by trying to bribe him with treats. Just keep encouraging him and making him feel safe when out side of it. For stimulation inside the cage you could try to add some more interesting things for him to do. Little cardboard boxes, with a treat hidden inside. If you have safe tree's, you can use the branches as perches and something to chew on. If you challenge him with toys it will help him become more brave in other ways too. switching them out often too, he'll get used to new things that way. Even stuff like milkshake straws can be really entertaining to a bird. He's extremely cute, with his little foot holding on to his cage like that. |
