Hello
I just acquired my cockatiel (my first bird) from my grandparents. They've had him for about 10 years and never socialized him or given him much attention. He is nervous and hisses whenever I get too close to his cage. I've had him for 2 weeks and he really needs his cage cleaned. Are there any tips for cleaning the cage without causing him too much stress? The only thing I can think of is to ignore him completely and do the job as quickly but smoothly as possible.
Thanks!
