Hi Rick'
 RF> since he loves attention.. Does anyone else have a BG they keep in the
 RF> house and if so does he/she literaly throw thier food out on the floor?
 RF> I love all my birds but this one is so messy. I know that all birds will
 RF> be messy i have 22 pairs of birds but for some reason he is extreamly
Wellllll, I don't have a food throwing Blue and Gold...BUT, I do have a food 
scooping, pick it up and throw it Lesser Sulfer Crested Cockatoo. As she 
picks 
it up, or uses her beak like a hockey stick to shoot it out of the cage, she 
will look me right in the face. Then the Grey, Suggie, will say..."Boomer,
STOP! BOOMER!" Hummmm, wonder where he got that. Of course Boomer learned 
the "Let's Play Food Hockey" from the Grey. But Boomer could win every game.
Oh, yes, there are days that I come in and really do not want to deal 
with the mess...again. But, all Boomer wants is some attention. I am truly 
grateful that she plays "Food Hockey" instead  of "Watch Me Pull Out My 
Feathers".
Just my two cents worth.
