After my initial fiasco with the screens. I decided to go slow by introducing the birds in the screened area. I should have known better since they freak out at even (what I would consider) benign new toys. i let linus and whook out and I TELL them ina soft voice "I'm closing the door..nice and gentle" So far, so good. yesterday, I let Patches in. So far so good.
I can't be impatient and just 'expect" them to be Ok with it. Yes, i should have known in the beginning. One day at a time.

Heehee, sigh ... I'm learning the same lesson here, again. I installed a rainfall shower in my indoor flight cage, imagining the flock would love it they way they do their mom-powered spray baths. Sooo wrong :cry: Even when just the slightest trickle is dripping, they react in horror. We're working on it. Good luck to you!

Aren't they just the weirdest creatures sometimes?? Mine go psycho when I walk into the aviary wearing a new top :shock: Only my whiteface pearl hen Meg (THE most chilled bird in the world lol) just sits there wondering what all the fuss is :mrgreen:
Our indoor budgie and tiel don't mind my clothes either, it's just the weirdos outside :mrgreen:
