EinsteinsM0M Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 What kinds of toys does your AG enjoy the most? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMustee Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Elmo LOVES her "Triple Threat Ducky" toy. She also likes anything with wood blocks. I'm pretty lucky, she doesn't like anything that's big, she likes Conure sized toys and foot toys. Here she is on her Hatch-day opening her gifts. I love the look on her face in this pic...doesn't she look like an excited kid opening gifts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaxtersMom Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Great Question. Mine likes bells and chains the most, foot toys and other simple toys. Leather straps and ropes are his latest discovery. The big hanging toys seem to scare him.<br><br>Post edited by: BaxtersMom, at: 2008/08/28 05:27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzzique Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Alex loves the rubber ducks! They last maybe 20 minutes if I'm lucky! He also really likes the texture stars that you can get as toy parts. But straws have to be up at the top of the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMustee Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Hahaha...Elmo ALWAYS chews the faces off the ducks first and THEN chews up the rest of them. I'm telling ya, there is something not right about her! I buy 3-5 of the duck toys at a time and then give one to her here and there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EinsteinsM0M Posted August 28, 2008 Author Share Posted August 28, 2008 I love all of these ideas! Thanks! Just a couple questions? Are these the same rubber ducks that you buy for bathtub toys? Do you drill a hole through the ducks and put them on a chain or are they used as foot toys? Is this a preassembled toy that I can pick up somewhere?

BMustee Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 The one I get is made by "HappyBird" and they are much smaller than the normal bath tub ducky, but I think it's the same material. I've been thinking of getting Elmo a normal tub ducky as a foot toy. The website is www.happybird.us We carry the toys at my store so I just get them at work. I know the local Petland carries them too, so if you have a Petland in town they might have them too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaxtersMom Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Here's a simple leather strap that can keep him occupied for a long time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzzique Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 It's not just Elmo that does that! That is what Alex does too! ALWAYS the face first then the rest! I get my ducks at party city. I've been meaning to order a bunch from orientail traiding company cheeper that way. I don't drill a hole because it is really a stretchy rubber. I just use my xacto knife and make a small x in the back and bottom. I make most of my toys. I enjoy it and Alex loves to "help". :laugh: Best diy toy site! http://www.cheepparrottoysntips.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt314159 Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Ponti likes any toy we give her! She used to be scared when we'd add a new toy to her toybox or cage (i should take a picture of her toybox, she's got way too many toys!) but now she likes anything we give her. Though despite the copious amount of toys we keep her supplied with, one of her FAVORITE toys is....bottle caps! She's got a collection of multi-colored and multi-sized plastic bottle caps now, and she goes NUTS for them when she plays on her toybox. She'll spend hours chewing them up, stacking the smaller ones inside the larger ones, seeing how far she can throw them, you name it, it's endless entertainment. A close second are ropes and leather straps. She likes to undo knots when you tie it up tight.<br><br>Post edited by: matt314159, at: 2008/08/28 20:27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyric Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Lyric loves toys with bells. He has this green rubber ball full of holes with a bell inside and he hangs upside down off of it and swings around, having a ball. He also likes rubber duckies- I give them to him in a small glass corningware dish full of water and he pushes it around and has a great time. He doesn't eat the faces off his first, he starts at the hole in the bottom- he likes to stick his tongue in the hole and eventually gets a beak in and makes it bigger. Of course some of his other favorite toys are anything he knows he's not supposed to have! Oh, also used to love wooden craft sticks (like popsicle sticks) only now it seems he's outgrown them and doesn't think they are cool anymore... he looks at me like "mom, don't you know these are so NOT interesting??" whenever I try to give him one now. I just love getting him new toys to see what he'll like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMustee Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 It's good to know that Elmo is not the only grey that must have 666 under their feathers. :evil: Hahahaha! Everyone says I should have named her Omen or Damion because of some of the stuff she does...and always after they hear about the chewed off duck faces!:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toni Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Here is Alcazar upside down playing w/his bell.He gets all crazy at times with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurie Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 I think Klaus has the same toy as Lyric: The green ball with the bell inside that they can swing from. Klaus plays with that one ALL the time. He loves to attack it! I love the idea of the rubber duckies...I will have to pick some up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toni Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 Alcazars bell DID have a yellow wiffle ball around the bell until he shredded the plastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toni Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 Here's the pic of when the bell WAS in the wiffle ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzzique Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 Toni I'm surprised the bell still has the clapper! That is the first thing that goes everytime. And that is both birds! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klaus plays with that one ALL the time. He loves to attack it!! Liath has gone through 4 of these. She breaks the green rubber bit, so I rethread it on a new part of the ball until there is literally nothing left to hang it by, then she is given a new one and it begins again. She LOVES that toy. Its nearly time for a new one again:unsure: Oisins favourite toy is teeny ball inside a clear acrylic ring, given to him by a very dear friend of mine. Poor Oisin will chase that little ball round and round the ring for ever. Maybe one day he will catch it:lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zooman Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 Zuri loves anything with paper..haha. and his bells that he feels the need to ring louder when im trying to watch tv and not paying attention to him. IM pretty lucky the commercial toys hes never gone for he loves the homemade stuff like paper towel rolls with treats inside, birdy bagels, not much of a wood chewer for sure.

Laurie Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Oh, yes, paper! I gave Klaus an old toilet tissue roll today with a teeny bit of tissue still on it. You should have seen the look of, "Yessssss!" on his face when he realized the extra shred-ability! LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzzique Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 LOL if you can handle the extra mess try giving the whole roll! Alex and Martini love this! Alex was so upset that Martini got a roll on his play area that I had to add one to his. It doesn't matter that he already had one on his playstand!

BMustee Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 I made the mistake of leaving the room with a brand new paper towel roll on the bed and Elmo on the treestand. I come back 10 minutes later and the bed was COVERED with bits of paper and half the rool was shreaded.:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broomer Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 When we saw Loki yesterday, he had a popsicle stick and was going to town on it, I pulled out the yellow and red dumbell foot toy and let him see it, he instantly flung the popsicle stick down, and waddled over towards the dumbell with an "OOOOoo me want!" look on his face. I offered the popsicle stick a few minutes later and I swear he looked at me like I was on something hehe. It's good to see he likes toys, any shape or form hehe. Just wait till the lil spoiled guy gets home hehe, he won't know what to do hehe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
