Well you all know that Bucc can be a real brat at times, Yesterday I was doing a major cage clean and Bucc hates it. I took the bottom trays out and got inside his cage I closed the top hatch up, and was busy scrubbing the cage top to bottom. I knew he had flown over but didn't think anything of it, then all of a sudden there was a pain in my hand, Yep the little devil had his beak firmly clasped on my hand I just had to stand there and wait for him to let go of it. I had left my hand to close to the bars and that was it. I now have 3 puncture wounds in my hand They were bleeding and real sore, so while I was cleaning I bandaged my hand (after cleaning it up) then all day he was coming up to me and telling me how much he loved me, and giving kisses, but the funniest part was when he saw the bandage, he would sit and say "Bucc gooooood boy, noooooooooo" (I have never told him he was bad, so when he does something he knows he's not supposed to its always Bucc goooood, nooooo) Later on in the evening I took the bandage off and its not too bad. Guess I'll remember next time to keep hands inside the cage. lol.
Today he is still being very loving, but at the end of the day I know he hates me being in his cage, even if it is to clean it so I should have been more aware of what was going on with him.
The cage does look real good - for a while anyway, so it was worth it. He doesn't even like me cleaning the cage each day, but he will tolerate that, its just the major clean he hates and I think thats because I have to get inside the cage to do it. :45: Will be more careful next time.
