Thanks for the replies so far ! Bella (My Parrot) has had the new cage for about 1 and half weeks, she's 18 months old now so the previous cage is all she knew. She was rigid at first in it but she's a bit more relaxed now although she still won't come out. Her previous cage she was never in it ha ha !! I'm giving her all the time in the world to get used to it as theres no rush. In fact she's got the next 60 odd years to get used to it. She sits in there whistling the theme to the 'A-Team' and mimicking the house phone. Oh yeah and barking like the dogs whilst shouting 'shut up' cos we do that to the dogs ha ha.
