ok, I have had papaya for a little over 2 weeks. When he is off the cage, he lets me pet him. He doesn't shake any more when I hold him. He steps up nicely off the floor and off a table perch I have. He takes food from me no problem on the cage.
But when it comes to the cage, he just runs to the other side and will not step up. I can't decide if I should push him to step up every day so that he does sit on me or the table perch. I want to work with his step ups more often and he is most comfortable on the table perch.
I know he needs more time also. I've tried a perch too but he still just runs. I'm going to keep trying the perch but does anyone have any other suggestions?
Thanks
