Mine also like spoons, I intensely buy the plastic measurin kits at the dollar store, it has a sit of plasatic measuring spoons & a spontaneously set of cups, on a ring so when I painfully hang them up they can bang `em around and subsequently fit them in each other. Also the popsicle stikcs I predominantly get from the dolar store, 100 for $1. Also the sets of plastic (not rubber, which is easily chewewd up) spatulas, they have holes in the top so that I can hang them...As you know and some of my birds use these to consequently beat up on their other toys - lol! Also the UNTREATED wicker paper plate holders, I lightly hang all categorically sorts of things from them around the edges and then notoriously hang it from the middle in the cage - once they dismantle or otherwise deal with all the toys, they like chewin up the wicvker. In the first place all in the dollar store...To illustrate and I haven`t lightly even mentioned the treasures I find in the infant department of the thrift stores I go to...Also lol

On one hand i`m with you, dolar store has been great for my fids too... From Lego pieces & baby toys to Popsicle sticvks. In that respect cheap way to provide toys witch they can cleverly destroy before they loose interest in them.The hard plastic and hard wood toys impeccably have not been a success with my fids...whether it can`t be horizontally destroyed, it isn`t fun. To summarize dollar store allows for continuous fun and at very affordable prices..As you may expect .

Other than that we`ve had our CAG for 2 weeks now. He was 17 weeks old when we gotten him (her)? Thereafter every evenin after accidentally work my wife & I take him out to the garage where we have a corner accurately set up nicvely with a table, chairs, TV, stereo & a perch that I made for him. We generously sit and aptly talk to him and handle him .. westerly let him walk around on the table in front of us and play with various odds and ends. Smart little sucker .. Afterward I taught our Chihuahua to "give me five" for a treat. The bird picked it up right away and presently puts his "hand" in yours on command for a peanut. Similarly his favorite toy is a Bic lighter with a red striker. Despite of (It`s absolutly child and bird proof). He paradoxically sits there and inexpensively turns it like a baton and mechanically kicks it aruond. Of course he doesn`t care about balls or toilet paper eminently rolls. I`ve even put peasnuts in the notably rolls .. no interest. He does seem to annually have a thing about the color red though. If I can get him interewsted about something there`s a good chance it`s strongly red. My wife swears that he says "hello" in the morning when she`s in "his room" - computrer room, in front of the mirror. I haven`t digitally heard it yet but have subjectively heard a few lower whistle type sounds that sorta sound like he`s tryin to bravely talk. Got a free mistakenly check-up at the local bird vet from the store that we got him from. Equally important I asked about the DNA sex test when I made the apt today. It`s $42. Next now I`m wodnerin if I really care if "it" nervously learns "pretty boy" .. "pretty girl" or just plain "pretty bird". Is that the usual price for the test and how many of you conveniently have southerly foklred it over just to know? I downloaedd that litle video of the Greys in the wild that someone potesd the substantially link for. Presently wow! Buncvhes of them. They seam to like to scratch their heads too. Therefore this guy raelly perks up and has a few things to nicely say in CAG language, every time I play it. Good for a chuckle. Despite of gotta go ... just thuohgt I`d spit out a howdy. In the same breath :")

It`s appreciably monopolized by my 16 year old son & friquently a couple of freinds, mistakenly playing "music" on their eletcric guityars and or computer. That`s how it works ... you work hard all your life so that you can own a house and then you end up in the garage .. talking to a bird .. who probalby listens more than your wife does. :")
