Does your caique...

Postby sandy on Sat Jul 14, 2007 1:11 pm

...stick their head into things (like paper towl rolls or cups) and growl?

...make gurgling noises when they drink or when you turn on a faucet?

...try to get into your mouth when they are hungry?

...think peppermint anything is the best thing on earth?

...love to rub in your wet hair?

...or dangle from your, or a friend's, braid?

...jump and freak out if you happen to drop something?

...but have a blast droping everything and anything that will make huge amounts of noise?

...put a hole in you shirt then come by and start picking at it a few minutes later as if to say "you know you have a hole here?"

...puff up and shake their head so hard they slide backward on the counter when they are eating something they really like?

I was wondering if its just my two goof-a-sauruses or if they are in good company.

Had to laugh - thank you. Cisco is doing quite a few of those things already. Had tears of laughfter the first time he went backwards on the counter - shook himself right off :lol: . He was eating a snap pea and shaking it like crazy.

Dropping things must be an inherited gene for birds but these guys take everything to the extreme and I cant count the holes in my old tshirts.!!!

Will have to get a mint leaf or two and try it out.

Lola LOVES to throw things off the table! We have ceramic tile floor in the kitchen so throwing spoons makes the BEST noise! lol She loves tupperware...the bigger the better. Even soda bottles!! lol

She does stick her head into things and has to look into crevices... like behind he couch and between the counter and fridge!

She loves to try to pry my mouth open when I'm eating... silly girl.


Chewing holes in shirts is a must! If I have a hole, she'll obsess over it and chew on it for awhile! lol

She's been into climbing down my shirt and sometimes out the sleeve! She's really funny with that! lol

...jump and freak out if you happen to drop something? yes

It's a yes for all of those for us. I think they are all quite alike in many ways!

Jujube does some of those mentioned above. She also likes: 1)rub her cheeks on people's shoes or car tires(when we didn't pay attention, then she ended up with "black" cheeks). 2)loves milk/cheese/butter. 3)she will try to pry my husband's mouth when he was eating her favor nuts-almond. 4)she chews/pick the leaves of apply tree

I think there are just so many things they do, crazy caique!!
