Stepping up

[failurebydesign]

You know it's funny how in the beginning your new baby bird doesn't want to step up on your hand for ANYTHING!
And then all of a sudden they don't want to step OFF of you for ANYTHING!

After a few days of not wanting to step up Tiki has even found a way to let me know he wants up from across the room.
He puts his foot up like he is waving to me, and I realized it's cause he wants me to come pick him up.

Awww I love that he gives you a sign for stepping up!! Watch out, you might have a little velcro birdie soon enough = )

I love it when they put the talon up. Abbey does it when she wants to be picked up or she wants what I am eating..lol

lol, my Meyers does that too. She's velcro bird, if you hand her a treat she assumes that's the step up command.

Failurebydesign how is the spray painted cage holding up? I am thinking if I buy a used cage it might come up in the future for me.

I traded cages with my friend but she is using the cage with her blue and gold and he is just fine.
