Silly bird, tricks are for kids

Ok, Funny story time:

I picked up a new toy and attached it to the side of the cage so that my Societies would get used to it.

A couple of days later I put it in the cage...before I put it in the cage I laced a piece of millet through it....now my birds would give their left wing for millet....they bounced around and chirped back and forth tryin to figure out what the heck I just put in the cage....

My brave Cricket decides the best way to get at this millet is to hang by one foot from the ceiling of the cage. Not land on the side of the cage or on a branch close by..no she had to dangle from one little foot upside down just to get at it.

I love my babies!!

Please share your silly bird stories!!!

I know you just got your societies today! Congrats!

In a couple of days add a piece of leafy green lettuce...they will peep with curiosity..that is my favorite

in fact, any time you add anything new they become very excited...makes me very happy

My Zebra's love abusing the parsley I put in the cage. They love tossing it around and shaking it to death...lol!
