If it were coming to my house I would put his cage against a wall wher he can see all the goings on and leave him alone for a few days. Dont change his toys or anything. Establish a care routine he can trust and then begin to let him out and take him on your arm with you or to a playstand for short periods so he can learn all the parts of his new home - esp the places he cannot see from his cage. I like to put them in doorways on a stand for awhile - seems like they can learn that nothing is "hiding" around those corners and they can still see their "bedroom" (cage), it makes them feel secure. Then after they have learned all there is to learn about the new home is when I add or change cage things.
