Quick update. Seems to be today and yesterday he's stepping up to come out of the cage, stepping up when he's out the cage just won't step up to go back in yet but sure that will come in time
Thank you. Seems like a big step. My hands where happy as well lol. To be fair I would take 10 bites off the alexandrine to one ff the budgies they don't let go lol. Yeah the food bowl I prefer doing over him not getting out everyday for exercise. The rest should come in time. Ifs all new to me...
It's a massive learning curve to say the least lol. He ain't bitten me today which is a bonus lol. It seems like I'm reading 20hours a day lol. I took apple and monkey nuts out of his diet after reading one of the threads on here when I first brought him. Yeah it was strange because normally he...
Brilliant thank you. Yeah I've been using apple or monkey nuts as a treat as there the two things he seems to like the most. Today he's actually stepped up to get back in his cage
Brilliant thank you. My original plan was buy a metal one but when I approached the idea I think the wife was going to ring my neck she said I've spent to much over the last 6 weeks will have a look at making a natural one or just buy one when I'm on my own lol
Sorry for yet another question lol. I'm looking at making a play stand. I was wondering is it safe to use 2x2 I brought from bnq and some decking. This Is purely for the base/stand?
Yeah I seem to be doing countless research. I sent someone who was having the same problem as me a video (I got speaking to him because the person I got my alexandrine off had stole his picture) he said it looks like he's biting out of being scared not aggression. He will still take food but...
Hi everyone I've got a alexandrine. From what I can gather he hasn't been treated the best in previous home. Basically first couple of weeks I could hand feed him and do things around his cage. Now if I go near he will bite or go to bite through the cage. The cage where we picked him up from had...
Will pick some up mate thank you for the tip . Yeah I let him come out on his own free will wouldn't force him it's not fair. Hes perky as anything this morning
Yeah this is what I'm reading online. All I do is research lol. He's gone to sleep within minutes of covering his cage. I don't think he had seen much fruit, and in my opinion cage was to small. Don't think he would of been able to spread his wings. He's coming along nicely and seems more happy...
Thank you everyone. Question time he come out this evening went back in fine. He's gone like he's got no energy what so ever and making a weird noise. He's awake but sounds like he's grinding his beak. Not noticed this before. So worrying about it. I've covered his cage for the night and hoping...
Thank you. Yeah I had a good read through. Certain comments don't show up for a while for some reason. He's fascinating me more and more as time goes on lol
Yeah enjoying it alot hes been taking food out my hand since yesterday morning lol. He's fine coming out first time he went back in on his own the other he took a bit longer. Trying to work out if he's being aggressive or just curious don't think he's seen a hand to many times. It's going to be...
