I've noticed Daisy eating bits of Kleenex lately - yes, eating not dropping it after chewing it into a spitball. I've been trying to keep it away from him, but lovies always seem to find what you don't want them to have :rolleyes: He also picks off the fibers on my clothes if he can't get to the kleenex. Anyone know why? I don't want this to be fed to Olivia & the babies :omg:

I'm not sure for the reason Jackie, but George did this wile feeding chicks about two years ago. All I can suggest is either don't allow the little stinker out where he can get at any of it until the chicks are weaned. you really don't want him to pass any of it on to Olivia or the babies.
With George, it was the soft perch in particular that he loved to eat. Can't be good for the digestive tract.

Yeah, I've been trying. He's fast sometimes. Just like Olivia, Daisy can spot a piece of paper across the house :rolleyes: I'm more afraid of the babies getting it. They are too cute! :clap:
