Hi everyone,
I'm so happy to be here with all of you and learn from some experienced parrot owners! I have had a 4 month old Maxi Pionus for one week now, so I am very new to this!
Could anyone offer some advice--Olive, my Pi, seems to be adjusting well. She will take treats from my hand and runs to the front of the cage to see me. The problem I am having is when I open her cage door, she climbs to the roof of the cage. This is fine, except she doesn't know how to step up, so I just have to wait for her to go back in the cage herself. Any advice how to proceed? She came from the breeder not knowing how to step up, and I can't seem to get her to do it on a perch, and definitely not my hand. Thanks in advance for your help!
