So the almond crisis continues.
For those of you that didn’t see my comment about the almonds, here’s the back story.
My African grey parrot loves Aldi unsalted roasted almonds. He’s been enjoying them as a treat for years.
Well they recently stopped carrying them. I’ve tried other brands, other nuts, treats made for parrots and all have been rejected and by rejected, thrown back at me with him saying “No good!”
So today I had a brain storm, that doesn’t happen often. 😜
I found some unsalted almonds but they weren’t roasted. I thought well I’ll just roast them myself.
They were in the oven for about 5 minutes when all hell broke out and I hear “What the f@&k stinks?!”
He continued to yell profanities (I’m laughing at this point). He accused the dogs of going (kaka) in the house. Mind you, my dogs don’t do that but he kept insisting that one of them went “kaka!” 😂😂😂
I waited for the almonds to cool down.
I sat next to him and told him that I got him some crackers. He calls them that.
I gave him one. Nothing, no response, he didn’t even try it!!!!
I’m screwed! Have you ever had a bird pi**ed off at you?
It’s not pleasant. He will make life unbearable for all who enter this house.
Please send help. 🦜
