Hi from Milton — proud Eclectus parent!

Hello! Been lurking on this forum for a bit and finally decided to make an account and participate. I've had my cockatiel Maple for about 18 months now. Always nice to connect with other bird people in the GTA — most people I know think I'm crazy for having a bird lol. Excited to be here!

Hey welcome! You'll love this community. Feel free to ask anything, everyone here is super helpful!

So what I ended up doing was using a stainless steel cage with proper bar spacing for the species. Within a few days there was a noticeable improvement. Definitely worth trying.

I used to think the same thing until my Amazon parrot proved me wrong. Now I'm firmly in the other camp.

My Lucky read this post over my shoulder and started nodding. I'm only slightly concerned.

Oh man, this brings back memories. When we were dealing with this with Echo, I thought we'd never get through it. Now it's just a funny memory. It gets better, I promise.
