Peco Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 I love this forum..... Colors and the bird reaction. My AG seems to love the color yellow above and beyond al the other colors. It adapts to yellow on it perch and toys especially. Is there any reason for this.. If i put a red toy in the cage, he doesn't respond bit with yellow he loves... just thought I'd like to share that.. also.. are there any related articles or write-ups on this subject? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave007 Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Greys respond to different colors. Depends upon the bird. There's nothing scientific about it. In a bowl full of colored pellets the bird might eat the blue ones first and discard the red ones or just eat the red ones last. Same thing applies to toys (colored wood blocks). Might intensely chew a yellow one and leave the green one alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makena Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Yeah, I definitely notice preferences for certain colors. Makena eats all of his pellets is sequence. The red ones are always first! Then the green. I don't know what it is. B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest briansmum Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 yes they do respond to colour and can destinguish between different shades of the same colour. brian doesn't like bright yellow things (oddly enough it's yellow) he's ok with them after a while but at first he does his 'im a big strong puffy bird' routine at them. if it's pale yellow he's fine. but it took him ages before he sat on his yellow concrete perch :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loviechick Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 My CAGs and my Senegal are all freaked out by white or light beige things, as in they start squawking and trying to fly, I've neevr figured that out. All of mine eat the red colored pellets, then orange, then green, basically in rainbow sequence LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danmcq Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Hmmmmm, I haven't noticed a color preference. Guess I'll get the Legos out and check each color on Dayo and see. This is an interesting topic. It almost sounds as if they are like humans that have a favorite color. I do know, Dayo does not like Spiked hair or Halloween masks, he will scream at both of them. My grandchildren came over and I have never heard Dayo scream as loud as he did, when one had on a horrible looking Halloween Mask :woohoo: I must say though, Dayo scared my grandson so badly, he took that mask off in about 1/100th of a second :side: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
