Strolling the yard
So I recently got Zora, my BFA, and I had set up my large travel cage for her while I cleaned her cage. She would sit on top of the travel cage, as I have set up ropes and a perch with her feeding dishes up there, and sleep inside at night (not always by choice). She's been hanging out there since Sunday evening. Today I finally set up her big cage after a MAJOR cleaning and replacing toys and perches. I set up the top off the cage with a thick rope and different toys. (At her previous homes she rarely got out of her cage, certainly not daily.)
Please keep in mind that she cannot be held, and I have to move her by wrapping her in a towel, which she do not like.
So I put her on her big cage, but she climbed right inside right away. And she's more aggressive in this cage. I mean, nothing like I witnessed when I picked her up, but still more than she's been since getting here. I can still pet her inside the cage, but I'm not anyone else will be able to, and I don't want this behavior to continue from her if I can help it.
My question: Do you think getting her a new cage would help this, or not likely? I mean, I'll be getting her a new cage eventually no matter what, but I'm wondering if I should make a higher priority here?
All of my birds have play stations set up above their cages, which is where they spend any time they're not on someone's shoulder or on a perch posted in my house. So cage size isn't that big of a deal, since they spend almost no time inside it. But will be sleeping inside hers at night.
