Pepper is 3 months old. She is still eating a mixture of formula with pellets, fruit, veggies, nuts, etc. I have a large daytime cage and a smaller cage for nighttime.
My problem is that she has gotten into a habit of trying to NOT poop in her cage. In the morning I place her mixture of food in the cage and she eats without pooping.
She holds it after eating and I bring her down to her other cage and she continues to hold it unless I place her where she can fly to the floor. I want her to poop before I bring her downstairs into her daytime cage because she will hold it there for awhile as well and I know that's not good for her.
She tries to not poop on people (flies off your shoulder and onto the floor) so she CAN be trained but I'm having a hard time figuring out how. So far she doesn't have a favorite food or activity. So bribes are out. [emoji19]
