Does anyone else's parrot love to drop things on the floor so that they can go down and play.
I always thought birds preferred to stay up high but chester loves the floor and the floor of his cage

They love it, but I hate it. I live in fear of stepping on someone.
 
Its hard work watching them all the time, a bit like having a naughty toddler in the house 🤣🤣
 
Yup! But Nameliss drops it on the floor. Climbing down and goes in that direction. She keeps one eye on me. If I'm distraction it's the signal to head for mischief. It annoys me. Sometimes she throws things just to watch me pick them up.
 
Love the name nameliss I can imagine she's quite a character
 
Nameliss has personally to spare. I couldn't think of a name. My sister who hates animals comes by. Shake her head. Poor thing forever nameless. Next day Nameliss was born. She picks up things oddly. She loves chicken wings. My father said here have some cousin. He did that maybe 3x. You eating some in front of her. Cousin, cousin. It's embarrassing about amusing. How do you explain? Then I try to get her to say something a million times. I get the birdie equivalent of huh? I hear delightful things about clicker training.
 
Salty likes to climb down to the floor and wander about. But he only does it when I'm in the room, otherwise he stays on his cage or play area.

I don't know what chester would do if I wasn't in the room cos I darent leave it when he is out lol
 
My cockatiels are like that. Open the cage, and the first place they head to? The floor.
