Ok right now he learned to pick up a ball off the table and drop it with a clang into an empty ss bowl! Next session will cement it. Martine, Jack hasn't been in yet though the shell game is ready!
Shell Game!!! I couldn't remember the name of the game :lol:

the table has given him one more domain to roam. Poor guy only had the greyhouse and door perch. but in the last two months something outside the door spooks him so that's out. Today Oli targeted him the entire perimeter of the table! I hope he remembers his ball training from today. He wouldn't perform for Jack.

:yah: BScoot!!! I think he's going to do the basketball hoop!!! Awesome! :dance4:

he was very quick to catch on that he must drop it in the bowl! I'll make him fetch from a progressively increasing distance in the next few days.

He's fetching the ball reliably from 6 inches away and carefully dropping it in the bowl. Poor guy got spooked after the game and crashed into the cage legs -- i'll put pillows tomorrow. He didn't get hurt because he chewed yucca in his cage after. I'm amazed how quickly he caught on to the ball fetch!

So Big Scooter had a bad day on the table last week and crashed into cage legs. He was doing just fine and then Jack yelled he pooped on me and jumped up which sent him crashing. It was a feather that had floated down not poop! Anyway tonight jack was well briefed and we brought him back to the table. He had been terrified of the table since, BScoot I mean. Today he ate pistachios calmly ...both guys were calm, no crashes. He forgot out playing ball though. Still, he's back on the table so hopefully he'll recover his confidence.
