Do you have anything set up outside the cage at all? The pic in my avitar is of my playgym. I bought that, but you can use anything really to make a little play area. I know some here have used stuffed animals and baby toys for theirs. Just be creative as far as things they can climb on and thru. Make sure when you are home that the cage door is open. Mine come and go as they wish while I am here. The cage doors are only closed at night and when I leave the house.
