I was wondering if anyone had any advice on building a cockatoos confidence when it seems to have faltered for some reason.. I have a lesser sulphur crested cockatoo that is getting close to 3 now. She is the sweetest and always been outgoing and wild. She has always been out and about with me most of the day. Well I am pregnant and had some issues come up and she was not out much because of it for about a month. Now that I'm up and moving again she is super attached to her cage! Not aggressively at all, but seems anxious when shes not on it which was never an issue before. If we are where she can see it, she stares at it. If I have her with me and move away where she cant see it, she seems anxious for a little while but then is perfectly fine and back to her crazy self! Then as soon as we head back in that direction she gets ready to hop on it and then goes nuts on her cage (like fun goes nuts/ running around, hanging upside down, partying it up with her toys). I dont know if she just got used to being in it because of that month or what. She can fly but doesnt ever try to fly to it.. she will fly off of it and land on the ground and run as quick as she can to it and climb back up and repeat that's one of her favorite things to do Haha. Also while I'm asking I'll throw in, she is the worst at baths hahaha it's like she loves the idea of it but not the follow through. She gets so excited when she sees water and acts like she is taking a bath, but she won't get IN the water. So she basically takes an air bath I'll sprinkle some water on her while she does it and she allows it but she doesnt want to be in the water, running or standing water! Never had a bird do this! Not super concerned because she always keeps herself clean and well maintained, just curious as to why she might do it.
