I think you know who will win this battle. Timneh wins by KO. Good bye 7 dollar keyboard you fought well.

hahaha, these birds are awesome, thankfully Enzo will only chew door frames....all of them without exception. Oh, and socks, if i leave my sock draw open when I take a shower she will know and i will have holes in all of my socks.

Maybe i introduce Enzo to my keyboard it would be a lot cheaper to replace lol.

Seven bucks is a small price to pay for a happy Timneh! :rolleyes:

Are you another clicky keyboard aficionado? Says the possessive owner of a Das Keyboard?

Anybody have an old IBM Model 80 PS/2 keyboard they are willing to part with? There’s a group that mods them for modern computers and I really want to do one. That was my favorite keyboard of all time.

yep. Though in comparison to the rest of the PC that keyboard is peanuts. Managed to win a court claim a few years ago so made a monster of a PC with the pay-out

RIP Gandalf and Big Bird, you are missed.
Think of how many cheap keyboards have been discarded into landfills over the years? Considering the cost of bird toys, $7 is a pretty good price!

It took her awhile too. She makes sure she gets the little plastic piece out and everything. Totally worth it just gotta watch out for the bigger keys usually have some metal clip to hold them in place. I fought for my enter key quite a few times before turning it over to the grey Tasmanian devil. Lol she loves human toys way more than parrot toys.

Enzo likes to throw things from tables/worktops on to the floor, a week or so ago she found a tray of eggs, she bit through the tray and took an egg out, rolled it to the edge and pushed it to the floor. I heard the smash and turned to see what was going on. She just stood there, bold as brass with that, 'what are you going to do about that' look.
She makes me chuckle, everybody else in my family would have gone crazy..... they don't have parrot companions!

Smokey would do that too. Roll a medicine bottle to the edge of the kitchen table,roll it off the edge and lean over watching it hit the floor,then look at me as saying "that was fun...what's next?"

You sure Smoky wasn’t saying “ Well? Are you going to fetch it already?”

Haha, Levi does exactly the same thing with medication bottles, but while he’s watching it hit the floor he says, “Whoopsie”. Too funny. :D
