Day 10:
Now that is a brilliant simple IDEA! :D
Ok, since my birdy's vice is Millet and he is afraid of all toys I want him to play with, I decided to take your advice and make a
paper towel foraging toy full of millet. As you can imagine, he took to it right away.
This toy serves 3-4 purposes:
1- A place for me to put him when he wants to nibble on fingers and faces.
2- A toy we can both play with since I am his perch some of the times. (While I write this he is perched on his food dish going town on it by his own.)
3- It is rubber banded to a toy that intimidated him yesterday and has a bell. He may soon not be so nervous to that bell sound.
4- It is a foraging toy and his first that I have been able to get him to play with! WOOHOO!
I think my guy has a GREAT transitional toy to learn about inanimate objects. It's almost certain he is a guy, since the only way to get him to do things is by food motivation.
Thank you, 4hand!!! :applaud:
Now for some bonus footage. This is the violet of the "Violet factor Peach faced lovebird:
