Aren't new birds very still for the first weeks until they become more comfy with their new environment? I have heard someone on this forum say that new keets are like little keet statues for a while.

I took the water container out of the cage with him still on it, and he didn't fly away. When he saw Paris he flew right on her cage though, and I think Paris really wants him in. What should I do? They want to be in the same cage

There's more poop sticking in his backside too now

He's trying to find a way inside her cage..

I got him in his own cage, but poop is still sticking back there, and he's sitting on his food container(how I got him back in), but he won't eat and he hasn't eaten for hours

What should I do?

You have only had him for a day. Leave him alone, quite moving him around, quite putting him in the same room with Paris. Cover three sides and the top of his cage.

LEAVE HIM ALONE for at least 48 hours. Just make sure he has food and water available. Then leave him alone.

Is he acting fine? Try to describe the situation more. We can't help you if you don't give details on how he is acting.

Give him until tommorrow and if the poop is still there , than wipe it off with a damp paper towel.

I tried wiping it off earlier today, he doesn't let me, and now there's some on his beak

Edit:I think he's eating it

He should not be eating it. Does he have food? Is it the same type that he was eating at the petstore?? He should be able to clean it off by rubbing his beak on the perch.

He has food, but he always faces in the direction opposite, and he has a hard time moving through this cage since it's so small, that's why I want to move him in with Paris

The food was bought from the same store we bought him from
