Our parrots love to play peek a boo behind the towel…


a foreign object and pulling them around to examine them. Luckily we can help our parrots before hand by training them to play in a towel. If they are familiar with the sight and feel of a towel around them then this will help to reduce the level of stress they experience in the vets. When you are handling or playing with


your parrot, slowly introduce a small hand towel onto your lap. Allow your parrot to investigate the towel at his own leisure, he will want to test the material with his beak and get used to the feel of the towel under his feet. When he is playing confidently with the towel you can start to play some games with him. Our parrots
