Well my little wild child is very destructive so I have to cover my pictures, paintings, cork board-so she doesn't pick the pegs out, she chews blinds -that is a daily routing getting her off them so she does not destroy them more then she has. Things HAVE to be put away or she will; steal them. The pictures of her below is what I have to cover when she is out so she does not destroy them and the things she steals.

Damn, that sounds like fun, raising a bird. I will
try it in the future, will be my next Ring neck.
I have my doubts on a second one because they
poop to much. I'm glad my floor is wood were
my bird roams.

Well to her everything is HERS or she has tantrums if she doesn’t get what she wants. She scream at me, look at me and just keeps on doing what she wants. She knows EXACTLY what she is doing wrong.

Oh the poop. Yes Im constantly wiping it up. I have those wipes you see on TV that are wet so I just clean it up with those. It makes it much easier.

I would just LOVE to raise a baby. That would be my dream.

raising her was great fun its really formed a close bond with us but coz she was the only one of her clutch to survive she just doesnt think shes a bird

I had a chinchilla Peeps who passed away two months ago, still grieving and upset but her parents died when she was one week old and I had to raise her so I know how bonded you can get. EXTREMELY attached like it’s your own kid.

They do think they are human that way. It’s great though raising them that way. I would raise all my animals that way if I could.

too funny!

Skittles is only 14 weeks old, and we have only had her about a week, but she is already showing how spoiled she can be! We have had to pull her cage away from the blinds, teach the cats to leave her alone (lucky for the cats they catch on fast), and take the remote control away before she plucked out the number 3. I didn't know they liked to steal stuff, I will have to be on the watch out for that!

What a familiar story. I have to either cover or put away the following things:
Car keys with remote alarms on them
Mobile Phones
GPS
Wallets and purses - he removes money as well as chews the wallet
My handbag
Pens
Computer mouse
TV remote - ours is touch screen and he changes channel if we don't cover or hide it - really annoying
My DS lite - he also likes to take the stylus out and take it home to chew
We also have a key rack that all the keys are hung on, however we have to cover it with a towel as Smokey sits on it and chews at the car alarm buttons - very costly experience LOL
