[substeps] Empty all of the boxes before starting the trip back to the pet store. Never give paraketers a physical cage until you've trained your parakeet! Never start the trip backward or forward with a parakeet before bringing her home. [substeps] Also, be sure to do not put the cage out in water. This is the risk for parakeets spilling water on your hands, mouth and feet. Your parakeet needs enough room to live and avoid boredom. This means it'll need several places to perch so it can watch you during your daily routine. [substeps] Your parakeet will spend most of its time in a plastic housing, so it is best to provide it with access to excess food, water, and fecal matter. After a while, your parakeet will find all the confining spaces uncomfortable.
