New toy

I thought this may be fun. Judging by his reaction he could be using it in about 6 months

That's if it's still in one piece in 6 months! All that lovely wood to chew. We got our birds puzzle toys, one of them tried for a few minutes. Then when he couldn't figure it out in that short time, he got angry and ripped the front off it . Not that he has impatience and anger issues

Haha!! Alfs brilliant with the acrylic ones. In fact once the fear wears off he works them out in seconds. It's getting harder to find ones that keep him working for any length of time. Got my eye on another but it's about 30:quid. This was on sale at less than 4. Bird on the vid looked like he was enjoying it tho. The only one he wasn't interest in was the treasure chest but friends o.w.a got it right away.

I remember buying an acrylic puzzle years ago for Dizzy bless him. One where you moved the sliders to allow a treat to drop into a drawer at the bottom.
took me almost hour and a half to construct it.
Popped it in his cage turned my back to walk away hear click and he was eating the treat.
took it out thinking I had put it together wrong nope hadn't.
popped another treat in a watched he leaned over tilted it and took the treat out the top!
gave up and stuck it in the cupboard as it was pointless may as well just hand treats over

@dido .
Have you seen the one made by Trixie
Little wooden box with three drawers and a string on the front of each one?
I do the "find the lady" trick not every drawer has a treat and also pack them with shredded paper.

Too clever by half. Take the short cut

 

[dido]

Yep seen that one. I've seen one that they have to twist the top to let the food down and then turn the paddles so it drops down to the bottom. He may have to think about that one a while. Make him work for his evening seeds

It's called creative foraging windmill. Northern parrots and there's a great video

When I was trying to teach Blu how to use it she got frustrated screamed on it,nearly bite me and then push it down from coffee table and ate treats from floorluckily Bluey figured on her own how to open drawers and Blu just started to mimic her at some point

[DizzyBlue]
