thank you! I will definatly give that a try. now to get him him to start going back in his cage like a good little bird like he used to, latly the only way I can get him back is to hold his foot with my thumb so he cants fly away, exept he does not like this much and tries to avoid going on my finger all together even though going on my finger rarly means cage time. also any idea how to get him to eat anything oter then seeds? I have been offering him veggies and such since he came home but he wont touch them. I have tried placing it on his seed but he just tosses it to the ground and eats the seed.
