Hi all, we purchased Percy a Calcium Bell along with all of our supplies before we got him. Whilst the crazy Mr Percy plays with everything else in his cage, he has shown not a skerrick of interest in the calcium bell at all.

 

Does anyone have any ideas on how to get him interested in it?

natural curiosity will get the better of him as he explores. I do not think you have to worry too much

Thanks all, I was just a bit worried as I know it's good for him and he's pretty much ignored it. lol The dear wee fellow has been hanging out with me for most of the day and is swinging round his cage like a flaming acrobat. lol

Hi!

Here is a suggestion:

 

Try putting on the floor of his cage, and playing around with it in your hands when he is in there. Ignore him, and just focus on bell. If you use your peripheral vision to look at him, just to sneak a peek. When he is looking at your hands, drop the bell and don't look at him at all, and leave the room.

I had a calcium bell hanging in my birds cages for a few weeks before he even touched it.

Just put in next the their favourite spot and he wont be able to help himself. I have also got him a calcium perch which he has chewed big grooves into as well.
