Answer #1

Birds in general, Tend to like shiny things. Maybe you should get him something shiny, Like a bell and put it in his cage for him to play with. I’ve had birds before, And I got them a bell to play with and they always rung the bell when they were hungry. Lol. Oooh, Or maybe like a mirror, Or just anything shiny for him to play with. Hmmm, You should go to Pet smart, Or Pet supermarket. They have a lot of bird toys. Hope I helped you. (: If you have any more questions, feel free to fun mail me. (: -Dogluver.

Answer #2

Hi, He is probably obsessed with the ring because it’s shiny. Get him something else shiny to play with. :) Petco or Pet Supermarket will have shiny things for birds, such as mirrors, etc.

As for a website with more information, the best one I’ve found for African Greys is: http://www.africancongogrey.com/

They have pretty much everything you’d want.

Good luck!

Answer #3

I had the same thing with my cockatiel, except he was more focused on the chain around my neck, he actually broke one of mine. I bought a similar chain and hung it in his cage, he loved it for a while but eventually got bored with it, still doesn’t stop him from nibbling the chain on my neck though.
