The fact that we are ‘talking about’ poops and feathers in your bed is funny in itself.

I spend a lot of time reading, writing, hanging out in my bedroom so naturally my birds come in here, too. But still pieces of nutriberry in your bed are quite prickly. Worse than cookie or cracker crumbs I think.

And when you do it, if you get it done professionally, you show them a picture of your bird and tell them to dye your hair to match him/her.

“Oh, um, actually, i want it to look like this…” *pulls out Jasper pic*

When a bird friend makes a wonderful casserole for us for Christmas, and I find something that doesn't feel right in my mouth. I pull it out and it was one of her bird's feathers. I just showed Reg then set it on the tray and we both finished our meal.

When you constantly rewrite catchy songs to be parrot appropriate.

The latest is “the Quaker Dance” by Men without Beaks. Pretty sure it involves a lot of head-bobbing.

When after a shower, a stray feather in the drain is waaaaay more important than your own hair. 🙄

I don't rewrite songs from zero but when I wanna use something for my stories, I change some phrases to be more parrot appropriate or/and more pg-rated (eg "Your feathers lookin' good" instead of "D**n, you're lookin' good")
