JDS5607 Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 AH! Sully is fully flighted... thanks to this recent molt... As a result, He flew across the room to my laptop, and before I realized, popped two of my keys off, and CHOMPED them! Not much left besides tiny pieces... yikes. This was after he flew to Romeo's cage to try and bite him, and after he flew after his favorite kitty....
ranaz Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 naughty guy...you gotta be watchful when he's out
Ray P Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 Oh the joy of a flighted grey. Nothing is safe and I mean nothing !!
Talon Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 Consider yourself lucky. My grey has pulled ALL the keys off of our laptops in about 15 seconds! We have had to replace 6 keyboards total...yeah, I know, we are slow learners...
Elvenking Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 LOL...I have lost a total of 3 keyboard due to this (4 if you include my Droid 2 phone). They love to pop those keys off. I have stuck to having a keyboard with a few missing keys cause seeing a new one get pecked at just does nothing good for me. It's funny in retrospect.
Luvparrots Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 (edited) Luckily, I have only lost 1 keyboard. But I learn quickly and now always slide my keyboard back under my desk! Love my desk keyboard tray! Out of sightm, out of mind! Edited September 6, 2011 by luvparrots
katana600 Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 You are all giving me ideas for when (and if) Gilbert becomes flighted. For Java I bent a piece of plexiglass to make a little arc over my keyboard and I propped it up to get my hands under it when I used my laptop. Gilbert can reach a greater distance than Java so maybe I can bend a cage grate divider to put my whole laptop inside a cage so to speak and have a hinged door where I can put my hands in. I will start working on that before I need it.
