Supernova Posted January 10, 2010 Posted January 10, 2010 Ben has just busted her first walnut open by herself :ohmy: I am so amazed at the power of her beak.
Summerc25 Posted January 10, 2010 Posted January 10, 2010 It is a little scary to be honest hehe Hope Shaka zulu never decides to crack open one of my fingers when he is in a mood :ohmy: lol just kidding <br><br>Post edited by: Summerc25, at: 2010/01/10 16:48
JillyBeanz Posted January 10, 2010 Posted January 10, 2010 That's amazing! I've tried giving Harvey a walnut before and he's not interested - has the attention span of a six inch nail! Did it take her long??
katana600 Posted January 10, 2010 Posted January 10, 2010 It is amazing to see the capacity they have and the strength of their beaks and how gentle they can be with our fingers and ears. Java is much smaller, but she cracks open an almond like nobody's business. I used pliers to break off just the tip when I was first introducing her and she took it from there. Now she has one every night at bed time and I think it keeps her beak from being quite so sharp.

It took about 30secs to bust it but now all I need to do is get the mol to give her one :evil:
she Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 I have given Charlie a walnut but he has never managed to open it.He just plays with it for a bit. He loves walnuts though so maybe he is just lazy.
Luvparrots Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 Would love to see Ben cracking a walnut!!!
pearllyn Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 Congratulations Ben!! Bernie you should try to get that on video if she'll let you. Alfie can only do a walnut if I start it off for her!
judygram Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 That Ben, she could be a ball breaker if you give her half a chance.:whistle: B)
Supernova Posted January 11, 2010 Author Posted January 11, 2010 I will do my very best to catch her in the act. My camera is at the Canon repair shop now, but I will if I can
Supernova Posted January 11, 2010 Author Posted January 11, 2010 I have her on video opening a few cans of beer if you would like to see that ? I did not post it because it is alcohol and I don't want to let people think Gray's can drink it.
Luvparrots Posted January 12, 2010 Posted January 12, 2010 Beer cans Bernie, shame on you!!! :blink: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
kittykittykitty Posted January 12, 2010 Posted January 12, 2010 That Ben is one powerful girl! I have trouble cracking them myself.
Supernova Posted January 14, 2010 Author Posted January 14, 2010 I was very surprised myself I must admit, I think there could have been a weak spot in the shell because when she gets any nutshell cracked she gets excited.
