I have an indian ringneck and as much as I love the little guy I don't let him out as often as
I otherwise would because he is a complete nightmare to get back into his cage.
I get him to step up but the moment he gets near the cage door he flies off. I have had some
limited success distracting him with his favourite toy while I put him in the cage but this can
take many attempts and I think he's starting to become aware that I'm tricking him because he falls for it way less often now.
I've only had him for 2 months and while he is loving he is anything but obidient.
Knowing that I could return him to his cage whenever I needed to leave the room would
definitely make me want to take him out a lot more often. He currently gets about 1-2 hours outside his cage a day.
