1ststatestereo Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 My 6 year old TAG that I've had for four weeks pays no mind to her toys, however she loves chewing on newspaper. I thought Greys loved their toys? I'm willing to bet she's still getting used to things. Like I said, I've only had her a month. She's plenty friendly (when she wants to be), but I thought I'd be on round two of toys by now, instead they remain untouched. I know what you're thinking. I shouldn't have changed out her toys from her previous home. Well, maybe, but they were in bad shape. Everything was covered in poop. I just tossed it all out.

Luvparrots Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 My 4 year old TAG does not play with her toys very much. I don't worry about it as she is out all day and flying around and interacting with me. My year old CAG is not much of a toy player either. Now my ZON loves toys, and chews them to pieces all the time. Each parrot is different, as long as your parrot is happy let her do her own thing. As for liking paper, be happy she has inexpensive tastes. Try wrapping treats and small toys in the paper for her to play with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kins2321@yahoo.com Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Sophie is not a big toy chewer either. More into chewing my purse, my new kitchen cabinets! I do know what she can't resist! Pinata's! She is more a social bird, loves to hang with the family, and be part of all board games we play. Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kins2321@yahoo.com Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Serious guys... they CAN play board games! Certainly... NO monopaly! We play board games all the time. Sophie figures out quickly, when one team is losing. Steps up to the winning team. Traitor!LOL As long as she knows and trusts someone on the opposite team, she will stepup. If she doesn't, she will stick to the loosing team. nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chezron Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Hey! Whatever works is good. Poopy toys are definitely a "no go" item. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lisachristine Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 I've had Rosie now for over a year and last week was the first week that she started playing with her toys. Now she destorys them withing a day. If I were you, I would keep offering them to her. Also, you could try to roll up fresh newspaper, shred the ends with scissors, and wedge it in between the bars. That's how she learned to shredd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murfchck Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 I made a toy out of adding paper and wooden spools and colored wooden beads, new roll of paper needed weekly. Stewart makes spit balls outta it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray P Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 A grey can make a toy out of anything. A fancy toy is only important to the person that buys it. If its fun than its a toy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kins2321@yahoo.com Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 I read the newspaper first. I insist on reading the newspaper. Sophie can have it when I'm done. She understands this. She waits patiently. All yours! Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
