Do you see this face on the left? He thinks he’s sooo innocent!
Conner likes to tap on boxes very early in the morning, especially on weekends. His favorite activity is tapping on the boxes to push them over so they make a loud crash. But I’ve figured out a solution. I pierced holes in the bottom of a tissue box and affixed the box to the cage with plastic ties.
Then to make the box more exciting, I stuck a soda can inside.
It’s not nearly as exciting for Conner now that he can’t move the box. I hope he goes back to chewing it. Crazy bird, he’s more interested in doing naughty things like chewing books and pushing boxes over the cage.
Oh, poor Conner! That’s just mean, taking away his ability to push boxes onto the floor (snort). Seriously, my birds aren’t the least bit interested in tissue boxes or any kind of boxes for that matter. Does Conner still tap on the boxes for the sound?
Interesting! I always thought it was an intrinsic cockatiel characteristic. Conner will always tap.
