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?

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. Link to comment

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. Link to comment
