This is Sage's Stash! HQ Cage Comes in Today!

[Bird_lover6]

I'm so excited, although s/he'll have supervised time only in the large cage for a while, since she's still unsure of side bars and tends to get stuck.

S/he's also only played with a few foot toys, since I've wanted him to "play" with different foods, instead. The slingy and blue ball in upper left are recycled from about 2 years ago.

Great selection - love the foraging toys.

I don't intend to buy anything else for a while, but if anyone knows of anything I really should plan on getting, please let me know. Although I have several perches, I have yet to purchase a bungee.

Natural wood perches - different sizes (diameter), flat perch.

Love the toy on the left - made of the vine or rattan mat? Did you make that?

 

[Bird_lover6]

No, I didn't make anything. I've just been searching the city's pet and bird shops every time I end up near one. I also ordered a couple of these items. Some of the toys (new still with tags) were purchased and stashed away for my four English budgies, but they have plenty of toys right now. And Sage has several perches in his play cage (soon to be much larger!) and his sleep cage.

I think s/he's set and the only thing I have left to do is get a DNA test done!

What do you mean the bird tends to get stuck? What does and where?

He climbs all the way up to the top of his small cage right now and can't figure out how to get down! (He's in an 18 X 18 X 30 high ?) right now. (Sleep cage is 24 X 16 X 16 high) He just moved to the taller cage and is getting better, But I still want to be cautious!

lol. I originally thought a body part was getting stuck. Good to know it's just inexperience on the bird's part.

 

[Bird_lover6]

Yeah, he's just a baby, and I'm going to be leaving him for a whole week starting August 5, although my husband, two teens and twenty-three year old will be here. Two of the four - who have bird experience - will care for him, but I am wondering about our bond. Everything I'm doing right now is with that in mind - especially trying to teach him to like easy to prepare foods like birdie bread and frozen wild rice mixes (just take out and heat). Sage is my number one project until I leave.
