YIKES, a parrot eating grass mat!

Beaker scared the crap out of himself.

I bought these sea grass mats for him to chew up and he will have nothing to do with them.

He thinks they are parrot eating monsters.

Just has a fit when he sees one.

So I put them away for months.

We put one on the top of his cage and he refused to climb up, his opinion has not changed about them.

I told my son to put it in the dining room and that Beaker was freaking out with it on his cage.

So, I am cleaning the stove and I can hear Beaker walking into the kitchen.

I didn't see it, but I know he turned the corner and ran face to face with the mat I had my son move.

I heard flapping (no screaming) and papers were flying around from the wing beating.

Beaker high tailed it back to his cage and didn't come out for hours.

I am putting the mat in an area I don't want him in as he chewed on the door moulding there.

It appears it will work better then scolding him for being where he isn't supposed to be.
