  1. Maybe Dee will chime in here. I seem to remember her saying Gilbert spends some time under the sofa as well!
  2. Sweet, sweet sweet! Already showing that insatiable grey curiosity about everything in the environment
  3. Hello and welcome to you and Earl! You are in for the ride of your life. As Ray said, post some pics! We love them
  4. Enjoyed the video, thanks! I know what you mean about the travel cage. Timber's pak-o-bird is now sitting on his playtop in hopes that he will one day want to enter.
  5. LOL! I'm thinking that probably tickled...
  6. That's a neat idea Nancy. We do whistle back and forth all around the house.
  7. Same here. Timber will always step up if he if not comfortable with his location.
  8. Very true! Timber seldom speaks when I am in the room. He is very vocal if I leave the room or I am in another part of the house. He may very well be "reasoning" and saying things on his own, but I don't hear it. Another reason I love the spycam... it's the only time I get to hear him run through a lot of his vocabulary.
  9. Yes indeed, very smart! I'm not surprised to learn that is one of the first things they figure out, how to poop in the most inconvenient location!
  10. Timber doesn't like to chew on wooden toys either. He DOES like to chew on wooden woodwork! Like Emma, he loves cardboard for chewing in the cage.
  11. Call me paranoid too, but I definitely go by the "better safe than sorry" motto with my bird!
  12. No knowledge here, but hopefully Dave, Jay or one of the other experienced members will have an answer for you!
  13. I'm afraid to ask what six is Ray! That is Timber's age this year...
  14. Timber has one red feather on his neck. At my first sight of him I thought it was blood. What a relief that it is just what I call his "birthmark."
  15. Yes, he is so cute! In a way I'm sorry I missed the baby stage by rehoming. On the other hand, I also missed the terrible twos! I just live vicariously through your posts and others (with babies).
  16. I have no idea but I'd love to hear a solution! Timber also bites when I move him from somewhere he wants to be back to his cage or playstand.
  17. LOL! Too funny. All you can do is hunch your back and say yessss master... Gracie seems to make a lot of those connections as well. Timber uses words appropriately, but I haven't heard him mix it up to fit a situation (yet).
  18. Timber has the same reaction to sticks/perches held by me or anyone else.
  19. Go Gilbert! Funny about the phone. Timber doesn't talk a lot when I am in the room, but almost every time I am on the phone when he is in the room, he starts yelling "Okay bye!" until I hang up.
  20. Half the battle is trying to read their body language and figure out what is making them act like they do. I'm not always successful, but more than I used to be. I always tried to remember everything that happened prior to a bite. Sometimes you can find a "trigger." Sometimes not though!
  21. Hello and welcome (again) I think I responded to another thread. That said, they are certainly in a class of their own! Good luck and God bless
  22. Absolutely. We need to start a group. PA (Parronts Anonymous)
  23. LOL! I was just thinking he may think his name is "uh oh." Timber could certainly think that!
