Awwww...I just watched the videos! He looks like a really happy and fairly well adjusted little boy! Do you have any idea how long he lived in the barn?

Wow, I wasn't getting notifications that there were more responses on this thread! Thanks, all.

We don't know how long he lived in the barn.

We've added a Sittin' Pretty combination perch/gym and he really likes that. It's basically a big perch on wheels with an overhead attachment for a boing or whatever. And it's pretty impossible to climb down it, although he's tried a couple of times.

Relations with my husband are improving!

My latest project with him is that I got a video camera to record what he's doing when we'e gone (and then hopefully find some solutions for the anxiety he displays.) I'm working on ethograms but analyzing that video will take a while That will be another post!

Hi, @Cris Waller ! You're not receiving notifications because you have to make a minimum number of posts (@Macawnutz , is it 10?) before notifications are turned on. You can comment on a few other posts, or go to the games section and play a couple of word games and you'll get the posts up to the minimum. Again, thanks for everything you're doing for this amazing bird. I'm happy to see that relations are improving!
