Knuckles Accepts A Rope Perch

Well, it took long enough! But Knuckles has finally accepted the rope roosting perch that has been inside his cage since day one at Parrot Nanny. I've learned to rejoice at each baby step! When he first arrived he had not been used to being inside a cage. He had spent most of the time on a tree stand. A cage actually allows him more exercise as he can climb all over using the bars.

Slowly he started to actually maneuver around the cage but he would avoid the "scary rope" as it was different than his usual manzanita.

Now, as you can see, he has learned that rope is fun to chew up! I wonder how long that perch will last?
