This morning we prepared his breakfast (corn, peas, carrots) ahead of time. So, after his walnut treat, he had his breakfast. Seemed to work. Yes, Caesar will be entertained by a paper bag for a couple of hours. Paper bags seem to bring out his aggressive nature though; he will attack it when he first sees it.

I'm so sorry that happened. You just never know what triggers them at times. I have 3 parrots, but one of my greys will get aggressive at times in the kitchen. She will attack an item, a dish, a plate, a pan, a box of plastic wrap, throw dishes & silverware on the floor over & over, boxes of crackers, cereal or pasta. Many times she is fine, but I have to always be on my guard. I am her 4th home & her forever home. so I don't know here history, ( I have had her for 16 1/2 years) I just stay on guard, I think sometimes the sounds of the dishes, or pasta shaking in a box etc. trigger her. I am super cautious when she is around. If possible, can you keep her out of the kitchen? If not, perhaps perches, toys, things for her to di, distract her may help. MY house looks lie a ginat bird cage with all the stuff I have hanging everywhere. I have also found an empty open paper bag & open empty box keeps her very busy while I am in the kitchen. Best of luck & keep us posted!

Wow. So many stories. Here is my latest. This morning I got Caesar up at his usual time, and gave him his morning treat, walnut pieces. Then, before I started his breakfast, I began to unload the dishwasher and he flew on my arm and bit me terribly in three places. What for? How do I recognize when these events will occur? Better yet, how to avoid them? Sometimes he is aggressive in the kitchen. He loves to attack the sponge I keep by the sink and dish towels; he will destroy the towels given a chance. My wife thinks I should give him my full attention for a while. Perhaps that would work.
