Even if he doesn't use both levels, is the enclosure still big enough? I would stay with old if it is big enough without the second level. Then when he decides, he will use the other level.:D

Is it the ramp incline being too steep for his liking that is causing problems?

he goes up and down it perfectly fine i think he just likes the top better. I think he likes to look out and be able to see us.

each level is 3ft by 2ft

what kind of light are you using on the lower level , maybe its too hot or too humid for him to want to go down there ... but i would just keep the old and just work it out figure out his likes and dislikes , it took my two a while to go to there second level now they go up and down it and under it hang out under the ramp and so on ...
