Doing Good

Here is an update on Benu. It has almost been a month since I got him. He doesn't seem to be moulting anymore though, but I can be wrong. He lost 2 flight feathers and grew only 2 new ones back. I thought he should have lost all his flight feathers...

He eats his mash well as you can tell from his face. I see him trying different items. I have just introduced sprouted alfalfa, fenugreek, and clovers. He doesn't seem interested in them yet.

He still needs work on stepping up. He prefers the comfort of his own cage, which I can understand. I should provide an out of cage play area which I can use for his foraging activity on my days off. I think he needs more stimulation than staying in the cage.
