Kakariki I live in Canada My name is Traci	I guess I'm lucky Mochi likes his cage so much, whenever I have him out he always tries to get back to his cage (even now when he's clipped). He doesn't try to go home when I'm petting him or giving him an almonds though :lol:

(he's found a part where he can just slip through the bars). As it turns out, this was quite fortunate when he managed to escape from his own cage. the swing door on his food bowl can't have been fully closed and he made a break for it. I was out all day and evening, crept in in darkness and covered the cages up trying not to disturb them. You can imagine the panic i felt in the morning when i took the cover off and he wasn't there eek I was almost hyperventilating when i heard a chirp from the cockatiel cage... sure enough he was in there on their swing, looking very pleased with himself. The poor 'tiels were clinging to the edge of their cage, desperate for him to go away. rofl

It took me about a day to stop feeling sick about it!!!! Luckily they are all used to each other, and have time out of the cage together. Naboo is always trying to make friends with them, but they're too scared if him!

Kakariki I live in Canada My name is Traci	So I had my first problem with Mochi escaping (his door was open.) This morning I hear him chirping from what I thought was inside his cage, so I get up to uncover him and he's not in his cage and then I looked over to see him on this activity centre that I had put treats on last night for him to go explore. drats
