DennisOoijer Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 Hey all! I was wondering, do any of your birds walk the stairs? Our African grey Dexter decided flying is too mainstream so he just started walking, and now every time we go upstairs he just walks along! Here is a little video of him walking: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inara Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 What a great buddy you have there!! Reminds me of the song from The Jungle Book: I wanna be like you I wanna talk like you Walk like you, too You'll see it's true Someone like me Can learn to be Like someone like you Which we all know goes both ways in our relationships with these wonderful companions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray P Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 My grey would fly but my amazon would take the steps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvparrots Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 My birds all fly. In fact, if for any reason they fly to the floor they immediately fly up. No walkers here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisOoijer Posted October 27, 2013 Author Share Posted October 27, 2013 My birds all fly. In fact, if for any reason they fly to the floor they immediately fly up. No walkers here. It's so funny how different they all are. 3 out of 4 here just love to walk around, and the other one NEVER even touches the ground! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murfchck Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Heehee, Bongo wouldn't walk or fly, he would insist on being carried. If i even try to set him on the floor, i swear his talons touch through my skin as his grip gets so tight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

judygram Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 What a cutie pie Dexter is climbing the stairs, no stairs here but Josey does get down on the floor and goes walkabout, she just recently regained the ability to fly and doesn't do it much for I doubt she has the muscles for it but if she wants to be with me she will climb down off her cage and walk to me.

DennisOoijer Posted October 27, 2013 Author Share Posted October 27, 2013 Aww, I find them soo cute when they're walking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Aww, I find them soo cute when they're walking Yes me too and occasionally when she goes walkabout she does almost a run instead of sort of waddling, wish I could capture it on video as it is cute as can be.

aerial.2000 Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 great vid how fun marco hasnt tried the steps ... thats ok I dont think she really knows about the "upstairs" ... ive only ever taken her up there like twice ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kins2321@yahoo.com Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Sophie walks as much as she fly's. I don't think she likes one over the other. She will usually fly over the stairs to get to the second level, but walks mostly downstairs. If she wants to play " Tag your it... with Sean", she walks. If Ryan is home with his girlfriend and they are upstairs... she will fly! Ryan's girlfriend knows Sophie is MOST important. Ryan always treats her as "His most important girl!" His girlfriend has been around for six years, so she knows it is important to Sophie to be his girl.She understands Sophie's attachment to Ryan.

DennisOoijer Posted October 30, 2013 Author Share Posted October 30, 2013 Haha cool! She walks downstairs? Dexter does not seem to be able to walk down yet haha, he just waits untill I pick him up and carry him, lazy bird He doesn't like to fly down either, so once he got up he stays there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kins2321@yahoo.com Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 What comes up.... must come down! LOL! She is slower on the downstep. I usually pick her up halfway there. Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harmar Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Sasha will climb up stairs, but never down. Sasha loves flying, but I actually don't think I have ever seen him fly up or down stairs, he will only walk up stairs. If he wants to go down stairs he will just sit at top of stairs whistling until I come get him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kins2321@yahoo.com Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 You have to remember, Ryan has been dating his girlfriend for five years! Its crazy! Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
