Hi There,
I realise that normally this would be a serious cause for concern and a vet trip would be the first option (which she had a couple of weeks ago incidentally - all good!!) but it is something Ruby has done since I had her. She was a very young baby when i got her and its how youngsters sleep until they learn to perch properly so i didnt think anything of it. But Ruby is now 5 months old, very strong and healthy. She can climb around her cage and will have naps on her perches, but every night when she goes to sleep for the night she gets right on the bottom of the cage and settles down there. The cage is a weird one, there are two seperate trays at the bottom and there is a raised bit straight up the middle seperating the two trays. That is what Ruby perches on to sleep.
Im not concerned about it, i think its just a quirk but i thought i'd ask you guys. Has anyone else had a bird that slept on the bottom of the cage? Is it something she might grow out of maybe??
Like i said, its nothing worrying, its actually very cute bless her! But odd!
