Warped... Brat Tiels....

[Suz Stickville]

A couple of weeks ago... while I was sorting thru the misc boxes... I ran acrooss my Furbie again... and set in on dining table..

JB promptly tried to throw the Furbie away... again... for the upteenth time... he HATES the things....

Well... me and my warped mind ... had this bright? idea... put batteries in ... and put in birdroom ... to entertain the tiel brats....

This was defininately NOT one of my better ideas.... the tiels have picked up several new noises and words..

Hungiiie
Yum Yum
Paaarrteeee
Wheeeeee
wOOoooOOOOooh
the snoring sound

and more....

JB heard this and LAUGHED....

The bateries have now been retrieved from Furbie ... and it is hidden in the FAR corner of a closet...

Today.... went into birdroom.. JB had put a music tape in for birds.... Alvin and the Chipmunks ... Christmas carols... and the brats were happily dancing and chirping to this....

Dropped tape in JB's lap.. he just grinned and told me that he was trying to get the Brats in the Christmas spirit..... do NOT want to heard Alvin and Chipmunk songs/sounds from birds...

What are we doing to those poor brat birds.....

LOL Ya know our Furby - whose name is LULU by the way (I think that's where Dave got our Lulu's name from ) is sitting on a shelf in the bird room and I often wondered what would happen if I put new batteries in it and let them have fun with it And ironically, Jerry's voice sounds similar to our Furby's voice so I KNOW he would pick up words from it - and other undesirables since Dave taught Furby to burp and fart

And Dave sometimes makes fun of me cause I tune the birds' radio in to Christmas Carols lately They love to sing to the faster songs like Jingle Bells

Haha... Loved that. (I'm fairly new here, by the way.) But I've been reading here a lot.

I have a furby, and had thought about using it. I SOOOOO glad I read your post first.

I have a lineolated who came here yesterday. Just 2 months old...ChooChoo. I'll post a pic, if I can figure out how.
