When will spooky be ready for a cage

[tlmetro2003]

Hello bird lovers, my african congo grey is about 7 wks old. When should i be looking for a nice cage for him? Looks like he's trying to get out of his container box and is still scared of me handling him. Please post feedback. Thanks in advance.

Spooky is still too young for a big cage but maybe you can find something with taller sides to put him in until he is big enough to go into a full size cage. He shouldn't be scared of you handling him as you are handfeeding him aren't you?

I am a little confused as you posted a thread yesterday about this 7 week old baby grey, http://www.greyforums.net/forums/showthread.php?190752-My-first-baby-african-grey!-I-have-no-experience-just-faith I am really concerned for this baby as you say you have had no experience but are going on faith, you never answered the questions that were asked of you in that thread.

I would like to shoot all the breeders who sell unweaned birds and especially when they know they are going to someone who has never handfed a baby bird before as so many things can go wrong.

Note: There should be no handling fear....

thank you for the feedback. Im also new with all these forums. I've replied but cant find where i left off. Spooky lets me pet him and hold him most of the time. At times, he's uncomfortable around me.
