Hello Diane and welcome to the forum! Congrats on your new baby! What a wonderful mothers day gift, that is so sweet of your hubby. I'm sorry to hear about your Amazon though, that is so sad I bet it was so hard to lose him after 30 years, wow I just couldn't even imagine. But yes these bird are very active little babies. I have a very hyperactive baby myself. He loves to fly all over the place and get into all kinds of trouble! I wouldn't worry too much about the baby getting stuck in the cage, they have to learn how to climb somehow. The best way is to ignore it and have him learn himself. It is very nerve racking to watch, I was paranoid about that too but they eventually get the hang of it. Anyways its nice to have you hear, I hope you enjoy the site. I hope to see some pictures of your baby too, we LOVE pics here.
