Your story really made me sad at first glad to hear he's coming along I myself know how hard it is making that decision =/ But you! Great job! As for keeping him penned up after hes been allowed to free range..it takes awhile but eventually they realize this is home long as hes got some space to walk and spread his feathers out a little, give him "toys" like a lettuce tied to a string about 2 feet off the ground keeps mine happy. Best of luck gonna watch and keep ya in my prayers that everything gets better by the day!
