Not to be an alarmist... but have you spoke to the breeder, and asked if she was like this before? Does she do ok with the perches together?
Hi Carole, it's perfectly normal if the Capes I've interacted with in the past are any indication. They're not all exactly the same, but the ones I've seen seem to be a little on the clumsy side in the first six or so months. :)

Maybe it's the same as the drunken wobble that toddlers have when they're just beginning to learn to walk? :rolleyes:

Yes, as said above, baby capes are very well known for being clumsy!

She perches fine, it's just when she gets moving quickly and tries to be fancy, or goes on a slippery perch. She also gets her feet all tangled up together and then she just freezes because she doesn't know what to do next!! :lol:

Isn't it the funniest thing when they just stop and stare at you like "help me! My feet are all tangled!" She always let out a little pig noise and waits for me to help her. LOL

At least she waits - I have a feeling Léa doesn't find we are quick enough and just goes ahead, whatever the consequence might be.
Actually...writing that, she sounds a lot like I did as a baby if I go by what my mom told me... :huh:

LOL She doesn't need your help! :p She can do everything by herself - like a big girl! :lol:

Mali always waits for me to help her....if she's fallen she runs to me and waits for me to pick her up (all while screaming!), if she is having a hard time climbing onto a perch or something, she waits for me....etc. Now that she's had a few days here I'm making her do more stuff herself. :D

Haha I know!! I tried to take one earlier today. She was going all over her cage, playing, being very active and making THE CUTEST noises!! But as soon as I whipped out the camera she stopped and stared at me. :lol:

I'll try again later today!
