for example, if you call my gcc jello "stinky" or "chonky/fatty" he will put his foot over ur mouth like hes telling u to shut up
When salty play Fights with you is he upside down?Salty likes to play fight with me. He does a fine number on his hanging toys, but he makes a certain sound and then I know its safe to play fight with him. TO others it looks like he is chomping on my fingers and hand, and technically he is, but the bite pressure is very light. I can tease him and fight back a bit and he does not chomp any harder. SO he KNOWS bite pressure and Salty is fully capable of taking a nice mellon-baller size chunk of meat on my hand. But when we play fight he never does. Know thy parrot !
When he is out, he likes to play between the wall and the back of his cage (which has his cover still on in the back). If I can't see him, if I call out "Salty, where are you?", he quickly climbs to the top and his head pops up to see me.
If we put on parrot videos Salty always asks the first one "Are you a bird?? A pretty bird??". That is always a real laugh getter.
Huh. I wonder if I could use this info to figure out things that Willow would like. For example I thought he would like colored milk caps but he was afraid of them.Ralph likes to play in the kitchen when it's not in use. He likes to sit in the mostly empty dishwasher and climb around the upper and lower racks and there are a few things that I have to leave in there (he Quaker curses me if they aren't there): an old empty cottage cheese container (we play fetch with that), a soup bowl that he likes to eat popcorn from and a small salad plate that he moves back and forth in the rack. I also had to clear a shelf in one cupboard for Ralph to sit on. He has a few things to play with in there too. I guess that could be considered quirky.
