How do I clean my parrot’s cage?
My parrot doesn’t trust me enough to get on my finger so if I let him out, I don’t think I can get him back in. How would I clean his cage with him still in it, or get him back in it after I’m done?
I was thinking about the towel thing, but I thought that would make him even more afraid of me.
I have a parrot the same way. I believe he was abused before I got him and he is still in the rehabilitation stages. I just go about my business cleaning the cage and ignore his raging and don’t be afraid. I have been bitten but I did not jerk back. Once he found out I wasn’t afraid he hasn’t bitten again. He will gain your trust. Whisper to him as you clean. You will find, usually, that he will quieten down so that he can hear you and just go on and do what you have to do. He should shift to the other side of the cage as you work your way around. I wouldn’t put him through the stress of taking him out forcefully and then recapturing him if he isn’t ready b/c all that is going to do is cause him to mistrust you.
