I have decided to take Paco with me out of town. He is currently in a large cage on a stand. I brought him home in my Amazon's old cage.
He stepped up on his previous owner's arm and she just placed him in the new cage. He stayed in this cage for 2 days while I cleaned his old cage. Getting him out was a challenge as I was nervous and scared. He wouldn't walk out of it, (it has a draw bridge type door that lays flat). So I ended up taking the top of the cage off, hoping he would climb out. LOL fat chance that didn't happen. I eventually just stuck out my arm and said step up. And to my amazement he did!!! Whew that was easier then I thought.
I have put the smaller cage in the room on the floor of course he is afraid of it. We are working on stepping up, I'm just not confident in my ability to be able to get him in the other cage. I can stay home and avoid this but there will be a day when I will need to put him in a smaller cage as I want to take him to the vet for a check up.
I look forward to everyone's advise.
