Hello All,
My macaw, Felfel, has stopped stepping up off his cage entirely. He has no problem sitting on the door or on top of the cage. He will climb down and walk towards me or another family member, but he does so rarely and at random times. This has been going on for about a month. I know he wants to spend time with me because he will play and clown around when I'm standing next to the cage, but for some reason, he won't step off of it if asked to step up. It's problematic as it makes cage cleaning a hassle and prevents me from spending time with him.
Have any of you dealt with this before? If so, how did you deal with it?
Thank you for your time,
Omar
