Stepping up

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.

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.
