May I ask why he needs this each day?

I read about his early on issue and thought he was past needing this.

Just as therapy, the vet recommended

He looks quite content sitting there though!

It makes a difference I like to think. I haven’t tested my theory

saroj, if I may make a suggestion...when I had to do nebulization treatments for my parrot he absolutely did not want to go down into the tank (I used a 20 gallon glass aquarium with an acrylic top) but when I laid the tank on its side he had no problem being placed over onto the perch as I closed down the lid. I was able to cut the hole for the treatment tubing into the acrylic lid. I will post a picture, which may better show what I am trying to describe, if you think this is something that may help Jackson to like being placed in the tank.

Thanks Karen! That’s a great idea!
He gives me trouble transporting him to the bin. Bites me the whole way. Once he’s being let down onto the perch in the bin he gets concerned about getting down safely and lets go lol! He’s not stick trained. I’ll move the bin close to the cage and avoid a few gouges.

Sounds like a good plan.

Deferring the oxygen therapy session till the evening. He was ravenous and ate a bunch when he woke up and sometimes gags in the oxygen bin.
