Got my new baby Rex delivered last night. His so cute. His 10 weeks old and hand reared.
He is loving time of his cage and is a brilliant flier. His found his safe places to fly and is really exercising his wings. He will step up on a perch but soon flies off. He won’t stay with me longer then a few seconds. His not overly fussed with millet atm so I can’t bribe him to stay should I just keep getting him to step on on the perch until he gets used to it or leave him to his own thing? I don’t want to undo all the tame his breeder worked hard on but I don’t want to rush him and make him scared of me!

Hi Rebecca! I'm assuming Rex is the parrotlet in your profile picture, and I have to say that he is absolutely adorable!! Really quite stunning :) I'm not entirely sure about what you should do (it has been years since I got my parrotlet, Pistache) but I wish you the best of luck! Congrats
