Peggy does this with her water bowl, i think they are just playing, i have to really tighten the back so she cant get it out, i wouldn't worry to much, Peggy seems to be looking at me when she does as if she daring me to stop here

Bellas not managed to get the bowl out yet but she shakes her head in her dinner fast to throw a everything out. Its surprising how far she can launch loads of seeds at once across the lounge. She does it when she wants attention or is showing off.

Grey's have a reputation for doing this. I bought a cage with bird proof bowls which are supposed to prevent him from lobbing the bowls around. He's still young so only time will tell if they really are parrot proof!

Lulu can't take the bowls out, so she takes the food out of the bowl and drops it wherever she is as if it is below her contempt. She might decide to eat the same item out of her bow later. It's complete disregard for my preparation of her food!  Although I don't think she sees it that way.

its fun! poppy cant get his food bowls out the holders, but on his play table he has a set of 10 babies stacking cups. he sits on the table and grabs each cup in the stack one at a time throwing them off the table and peeping to see where they land. then he waits while i collect them all up and stack em again so he can do it all again. if you hide a banana chip or a raisin between a few cups it increases the fun and the time the game takes. i tried puttin them back singly in the hope he wud restack em but he wouldnt, he just slung em again. it was like handbags at dawn the other week when the puppy ran off with one of his cups! full airborn screaming tantrum, even tho hed still got the other 9 left!!!!!!!!!!!

absolutely! considering all what were told, about them expecting to share food etc he has no inclination when it comes to "his" things. "my things" i have to share with him," his things" he shares with nobody even if he aint using them
