Doug Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 I have a home office with a play-stand in the corner. (See this thread for details.) (Note: I moved the jute-wrapped ring into the "stop sign" area at the top...) Generally, Ellie only would spend 30 minutes or so on her play-stand before flying to me or my desk. While I DID let her nap against my chest (with one hand over her head) yesterday, it is nearly impossible to get any work done if Ellie is at my desk - she will NOT stay on my shoulder. As such, she usually ends up back in her cage (in another room) until my next bathroom break. For some reason, the past couple of days she's hung out on the play-stand for a couple of hours at a time. Of course, I keep my camera handy... If you click on the picture, you will go to the picture's page on Flickr which has different sizes and some additional explanation (if it isn't obvious enough!) Once the toy is gone, play with the string by shyzaboy, on Flickr The rare bearded African Grey parrot by shyzaboy, on Flickr Untangling the twine by shyzaboy, on Flickr Hanging out on the swing by shyzaboy, on Flickr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray P Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 You know when you have done a good job making a play-stand when your grey takes the time to take it apart. She did her job when you were doing yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug Posted March 28, 2012 Author Share Posted March 28, 2012 Unfortunately, she would still prefer to spend time on my desk tearing up the paper and playing with all of the telephones and wires... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug Posted March 29, 2012 Author Share Posted March 29, 2012 I'm sure that eventually she will learn that when she messes with my desk that she goes back into her cage. A battle of wills... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aw64 Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 I'v just seen your playstand well your birds play stand its ace, is there any chance you can run through how you made it, how high is it ect, remember I'm female!! We have a large brought play gym in spare room but limited to how much time we can spend in there and alfie really does not like being on his own, the gym is too large to have down stairs so somthing like yours would be great, like the casters idear easy to move from lounge to kitchen.
