Thanks, Patience I have... and I am having so much fun with him... Love watching some of the little funny things he does. The neatest thing was his eating millet out of my hand. Another thing he is doing that he hasn't done before is take a nap, both yesterday and today he took a little nap after his outing. It is like he is finally relaxing and accepting his new home.
Big Milestone today

Poor little guy had so much happen to him in such a short amount of time... he was taken from all his other feathered friends after being with the breeder for a year, had his wings clipped by his breeder, was put in a carrying crate by a stranger, (me) taken for a car ride, put in a new cage, then the second day I had him he had the poopy stuck to his butt, so had to have the disgrace of having that wiped off, which wasn't pleasant for him....so basicly had to man handle him to do that... so has been a trying time for him. I try to put myself in his little shoes so to speak.. 
and yes, it would be very frightening.... so am very glad he is starting to feel more comfortable...

Thanks all for the encouragement. Had him out again, and while I was letting him have millet from one hand, I was asking him to step up with the other... He didn't quite step up, but put his toes on my finger... Maybe tomorrow.... and hes not trying to nip anymore...
