Finally got them to stop chewing on my clothes

I want to share a birb life hack, ever since I’ve had birds my main struggle has been them destroying my tops

I have a lot of beads laying around, it’s part of my religion and culture but they never seem to be interested in them

Until I wore one as a necklace today and my birds sat on my shoulders... it has kept them entertained for an hour

Awesome tip - I’ll have to try it....I have more holey shirts than I care to think about

Some of my shirt have got more holes in them than a piece of Swisse Cheese!!!

But....since the invention of the buttons its taken their aim away from my shirt fabric, onto my buttons!

My Scomo is a shocker for destroying shirt....loves a good ole' chew and his favourite thing to do with me is have a 'tug of war' with my collar

I purchased a bird toy necklace. It is probably the best toy I’ve ever purchased for her. It had sola coins and balsa blocks and wooden beads and plastic toys-all of the sola and a lot of the balsa is gone, but she still loves to climb on it and chew it. I’m trying to talk the person who sells them into making refill kits! Picture below-note the shredded wood on my shoulder!

I wear a denim jacket...always...when handling Archie. Metal buttons and grommets.

Chew away, my liege.

I’m also one of those old farts with a pony tail, and he loves nuzzling into that.

I still don’t think it’s a great idea to introduce anything on your body which will encourage chewing. There are other places to engage in that activity.

When he goes for a metal button, it only lasts a few seconds, and he comes to the realization:

“Well...time to move on. I can’t do any damage HERE!”
