Our Pink dude continues to teach us more about his clown-self. We discovered that jumping rope drives him bananas.



I got a new jumping rope the other day. In the room where Dante 's cage is kept and while he was in the cage, I started to do jumping rope. The second I started, I heard the Pinkster going crazy, throwing himself a wild party.

Now that is something completely new we learn about him. It did surprise me, my mum and bro (who were also in the room) so much. Who knew that he would go super excited over the jumping rope and joins you at it somehow because the more I jumped with the jumping rope, the more he went goofy. The second I stopped, he stopped too. My bro was like: "such a weird clown" :lol:

Yesterday, my sister did the jumping rope again in the same room and I filmed him in action. You can see his behavior in the below videos - hoping that the vids will appear here. (in the background, my sis was jumping the rope). I just wonder out of curiousity, what is it about us jumping rope that makes him go crazy? no certain answer I have, other than, Dante is nuts :p

If I was a galah I would go crazy over jump rope too, there's a great beat to dance to and the person appears to be dancing along too LOL

I bet he would like a dance party, I have those with Rosie sometimes lol And I LOVE all his noises so much! He sounds adorable!!!

I'm glad that you enjoyed the vidz guys.

I guess that the Pinkster does see us dancing when jumping rope :p

He is a Galah- An Australian Birdie ; also known as the Rose Breasted Cockatoo.
He is a smaller type of a cockatoo (smaller than the big white ones).
