Do anyone have any recommendations for games/activities to play with your bird? I’m running out of ideas!
I had to look at my google docs to find my list:
peekaboo, fetch with a toy, puzzle games, wing flapping bouncing on hand, dance, which cup is the treat under?, swing on a rope, hide and seek, throw or stack a tower of cups for them to knock down, pass the birdy round, paint, tag/chase (sometimes they will chase a string around), any kind of exercise, dress-up birdy, mimic each other, tug of war, sharing a meal together, take a shower together, do a chore together.
Some of these won't work for some birds, and could be uncomfortable for them so pay attention to their body language and dislikes. Passing a bird to other people is not fun for some birds and they might bite. For painting I have my birds walk in food coloring on a piece of paper for some treats. And the dress-up is just being silly. I set a piece of paper on them like a cape, or a little hat. Never tie anything on them, and some birds won't care for it, it's more of a game for my Too.
