chezron Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Brutus was helping Larry with the laundry. Brutus likes to help with all the chores. We usually have to toss him something to destroy, to occupy his time. Larry tossed him a sock on the bed and he flew to the sock and rolled over on his back to fight with it. He ROLLED on his back! Have you ever seen your grey do this? I couldn't get a picture in time to document it, but it was amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spock Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Thanks, yes, it's just play make believe time, sometimes they let out a Pterodactyl yell while doing this. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talon Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Yes my birds do that too. It's their attack/play mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Some greys will regularly roll over on their back to play and some won't, mine has never done that and doesn't like it if I try to put her on her back so count yourself lucky that Brutus will do that, it looks so sweet when they lay on their back.

murfchck Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 This is Gabby, she is on her back alot. She laid like that for a while until Pat gave her tummy rubs, when she got her fill she got up and attacked her toys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chezron Posted August 27, 2012 Author Share Posted August 27, 2012 Gabby is so cute! Yes, I regularly flip Brutus on his back and rock him like a baby, so I guess he was a little used to the feeling already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kins2321@yahoo.com Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Sophie is a very happy, well adjusted bird... but being on her back? NOWAY! one time she was playing on our gate ( safe), and got stuck... she had to let go, while being upside down. I knew it took alot for her to do so. The other day, I was hand feeding Sunny sunflower seeds ( he had landed on the bottom of play gym), Sophie got curious, flew down her metal gym, 90 miles an hour, like she usually does. Overshot, ended up hanging upside down at the bottom. She didn't like her predicament, so I told her, " let go... I'll catch you". She did... but I could tell she wasn't happy about her situation.
