Re: Housework with a lovie
My GCC's don't like housework, come to think of it I don't either My lovies however do love it. They love to "help" unload the dishwasher, anything that makes clanging noise, they love it. They don't however "love" the feather duster, that is the BIG SCARY MONSTER as far as they are concerned
I have to say, my most laid back birds are the tiels. They could care less what you do with them. The only thing I get from them is this cute little sideways look, and their plumes stand straight up if you make a sudden, loud noise. I think it's just too cute, so I make noise allot
I do not cook with them though. Poop is not a garnish my hubby would approve of, but on a serious not, we have heard horror stories of birds in the kitchen. If the stove or oven is in use, the birdies are in their cages.
One other danger is one I heard of, but never thought of until I read about someone loosing their bird by drowning in a glass of water. So standing water is also something to think of in the kitchen.
So many dangers to our little ones, and they can be so quick. I guess what I'm saying is, whatever you do, think of what could happen, and if the risk is too great, then that is time for the fids to go to their safe spot.
