Question 2 Questions...

Hello everyone,

i just have two questions.


1. I recently got fake nail. the acrilic ones and my bird hates them! and he attacks me. Is there anyway i can get him not to hate them?

2. Also he really really really LOVES taking to clothes. Socks, Shirts, Towels anything fabric-like. Im not complaining, cause he loves it, but is there any reason why? Its the funniest thing but!!..

Thanks Heaps :)

Nikki

If your bird was used to your nails before you had the acrylics put on, he may be scared of your new nails. Also, I'd be careful of the adhesives used on acrylic nails. I don't have acrylics nor do I paint my nails as I don't want my birds ingesting nail polish or remover residue on my nails, however minute the amount. I just buff my nails and keep them filed so as to not frighten my fids.

As for the clothes, no idea. Just a unique behavior of your bird. They do some funny things!
