Timbersmom Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Timber got a talk'n'play for Christmas. He is often iffy about new toys so I thought it would be a long time before he would mess with it. Wrong! He loves it. It is past his bedtime and he is in there punching the buttons in the dark.

aerial.2000 Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 ooo i thought bout that gift for marco ... maybe next time im at the parrot store! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kave70 Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 I bought that toy for Sam and he felt otherwise. All he did was bang it against the cage and seemed to get angry with it. He broke it within a weeks time. I may try it for my RB2 though- bet he'd love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timbersmom Posted December 26, 2012 Author Share Posted December 26, 2012 I'll try to get a pic of him actually using it. Every time I approach with the camera though Timber goes into "frozen bird" status so we'll see! I didn't really know if he would like it or not. I have a lot of toys I bought in the "no go" box already. I was really surprised at the way he took to it. Different strokes indeed! Kave, several reviewers had the same reaction as Sam.

MiracleAces Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Luna is the same. Everytime I pull out the camera she stops what she was doing. I hear this happens a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acappella Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Glad the toy is a hit and not viewed as a "potential parrot killing device". Here's a tip for getting a fid used to a camera. Buy a cheap tripod and leave it up all the time. Move it around from time to time, turn it on & off, until the sight and the sound of it becomes background noise. Then we can get to see what you're seeing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmcq Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Many greys are camera shy especially if we are holding and pointing it at them. Thus when I record dayo, I place the camera on the counter and zoom in on him, then hit the record button and walk away. I keep having to remind myself to see if day would like one of those toys. I look forward to seeing a photo or link to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timbersmom Posted December 26, 2012 Author Share Posted December 26, 2012 Here's a link to the toy. http://www.amazon.com/Jungle-Talk-Play-Phone-Large/dp/B000UJURY0/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1356549941&sr=8-2&keywords=bird+talk+and+play Aerial, the tripod idea is a good one if I had a tripod. All I have is a cheap point and shoot and my phone camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Sometimes the toy we think they will never take to becomes an instant hit, we just never know but glad Timber enjoys it, I have thought of getting one for Josey but just hadn't done it yet, maybe the time is right.

Wulfgeist Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 I recently got one of those for Jasper. The same button keeps going off because all he does is try to figure out a way to get the mirror stuff off of it lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timbersmom Posted December 26, 2012 Author Share Posted December 26, 2012 Keeps him occupied though! That's what I look for in toys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
