Birds and Computers

Why is it I can have a whole box of toys out for my guys and their only thought is how to destroy my computer keyboard and mouse? Bing is worse than Davey in this regard but Dave isn't innocent either.

Boy do I know that feeling! Bogie will ignore everything in favor of the keyboard, the mouse and my cell phone. I don't know why either. Just wanted to let you know that you are not alone in this!

Oh yeah, I forgot cell phones and remote controls. It is the first thing Bing will go for.

That's hilarious, I've just put Chirpy away so I can actually read the new posts on Bird board without her trying to eat the laptop. She's not happy!!

Well of course they're going to go after those devices!!
They want the chance to mess with the things that are so persistant in stealing mommy's / daddy's attention.

Let's just say that my World of Warcraft character has made many a strange move because of a little cockatiel who insists on dancing around on my keyboard while I'm playing... :)

I often had the same problem. My tiel' has caused my warlock die many times in battlegrounds by walking onto my keyboard.

It takes me a good minute and a half to get my cell phone's plastic snap-on case off... took my GCC about 5 seconds! They are really intrigued by the lights on my phone. Luckily my phone is a slider!
But...
Does anyone know where I can get a replacement #0 and "Volume up" key for a tv remote? LOL

lol another wow issue.... I died in the first min of Supremus in BT cause my bcc jumped on my mouse and moved me into the fire..... my guild makes fun of my husband saying that the birds are our raid leaders instead of him. They has gotten used to hearing them but it sets off someone elses birds during the raid too. So if he talks all you hear is his screaming birds and he does not like the birds lol.
I am trying to teach my birds to play me in BGs lol free honor.

Something my husband did for our bcc is he gave him one of our old keyboards to play with while we are on ours so that he has what he wants and we dont have him jumping on ours and getting mad when we take our keys back that we need.

I don't know something about the sound the keys make when they walk on them and beak taps, as well as the perfectly good mouse cords.
