Thanks for the reassurance Ellie he took a grape out of my hand today! Very excited, can't wait till I can finally teach him step up. I guess I'll just have to be patient.

9 month old IRN is terrified of me, don't know what to do!
I've had my blue IRN for about 4 months now, and I did have him at the stage where he was eating out of my hand but wouldn't let me touch him.

Re: What size cage for IRN?
Haha when I say 'out' I mean strictly supervised! lol I had a cockatiel when I was a teenager and he chewed through anything he could get his little beak on! They definitely can be potty trained, you just have to know how often the parrot poops and when you've got the timing right, say it's 7 minute...

What size cage for IRN?
I'm looking at buying an IRN, they seem to be very social and have great personalities. Just wanting to do my research first. What size day cage does a ringneck need? I'm a bartender so I work nights and am at home generally during the day, so it would be able to roam around the house (supervised ob...
