oh boy, cocky escaped, what's she wrecked?

[strudel]

I have questions, but I bet nobody can give me any answers...

I just woke up (very, very late) to find my cocky out of her cage and wandering around the room where her indoor cage is. The room with all computer stuff and so much stuff in it I don't know where to start to see what she's wrecked.

What would a cocky head for first to destroy?

 

[Scott]

Anything that is chewable!!!!!

 

[Allee]

Anything you can't possibly replace!!!

 

[getwozzy]

Wires. Buttons. Keyboard. Crinkly things. Shiny things. Ummm everything and anything?? Lol

 

[veimar]

You didn't specify - is Cocky your Galah? or a tiel?
I think you've figured out at least part of destruction by now.

hahaha.....He probably got on your computer an logged into the parrot forum. Then destroy the keyboard ( as my grey has done), or manage to hit the only button on the phone that is set for speed dialing 911....then yell for help....lol

The day Alice got out she completely destroyed the keyboard of my laptop and scalped a few buttons on the tv remote. Oh well, you live and learn

 

[strudel]

is Cocky your Galah?

Yes, we call galahs cockies.

I haven't discovered anything wrecked yet. I did find a pile of poo so I can see where she was at some stage. The trouble is, I've no idea how long she was out for, that could be the extent of it, sat there for a while, or she could have been marauding around the room all night.....

Last time I left the door open, I found her sitting there, I didn't think she'd done anything and then I found a dismembered keyboard in a box. I might not find out what she did (if anything) for quite some time.

Well it seems like the computer and keyboard are working just fine, so hopefully you're all clear

Unfortunately not, this is a laptop in another room, there's all sorts of stuff she could have wrecked in the "office". (I don't really want to know, I'll just avoid going in there. )

 

[Scott]

No damage yet? Ahhh, tricky.... She was performing reconnaissance to gather ideas for next time!

 

[strudel]

There's not gonna BE a next time!

(I hope.... )

 

[thekarens]

She's a too. When there's a will, there's a way. They are master puzzle solvers.

LOLOLOLOL! There's a lesson in all this y'know!

Keep your cockatoo caged, mate
Keep your cockatoo caged
If y'don't he'll go on a rage, mate
So keep your cockatoo caged!

Dominic has nibbled off the top edge of the gaskets on the doors of our fridge/freezer combo. Each one cost $100 to replace. It is my belief that cockies have an internal calculator which allows them to determine the most costly item in your home so they can destroy it first. You need to be vewy, vewy caweful, strudel!

And there was I hoping that all she'd done is sit there and poo on the floor....

Oh right, well that's a bit tricky then. Hope nothing's wrecked

Ha haaaa....They sure do have an internal calculator....I'd use mine to add up what my Grey has chewed up, or Senegal (Aka...Buzz Saw)....but they destroyed the calculator as if they know to keep me guessing.
