African Grey parrots are popular birds with pet owners because of their intelligence and their ability to talk. As a parrot owner, you may be busy throughout the day trying to teach your African Grey parrot to talk, or breeding a parrot, or teaching your parrot new tricks. But know when it is time to give your parrot a break from all these training stuff and just give the bird some social time. Spend the day with just the two of you doing fun stuff, like you would with your other non-feathered friends.
Let the parrot free in the house and let it choose what it wants to do. My parrot likes to fly from one perch to another across the living room. It also likes to strut on the sofa and mimic sounds from his vocabulary. And while I am reading a book or watching tv, the bird would perch on my lap and pretend it is doing the same.
Purchase new toys for your bird because just like humans, they get bored playing with the same toys over and over again. Rotate them with the old ones so the bird will not get bored. Play interactive games with your bird. You can use ropes, barbell, a towel, a soft ball, or your bird's favorite toy. Prepare some special meal for the bird with fresh vegetables, nuts and fruits that are to your bird's liking. You may even want to hand feed the bird and take it outside in the open air to have an outdoor meal. Just make sure you take precautions that your bird won't fly away and leave you. Let your parrot splash around in the sink or pail of water, or the tub. Or you can make a special perch for your bird to perch on while in the water. Use a squirt bottle to create mists and make the session fun for the bird. There are hundreds of save and fun things to do with your parrot. Just like any other pet, they love the attention from their master. The great thing about it also is that it relieves you and takes the stress out of your system.
