Is it the males who play with toys more. Also with mirrors, do males tend to stick like glue with a mirror and just sit there like a sitting duck? My bird is like that with mirrors, he ignores everything, then just walks to the mirror and sits for ages with his body almost pressed against it....

My biggest hint for keeping your bird happy and a great pet is to take away the mirror. When a bird looks in the mirror, she sees a mate. Since birds are bonded creatures, they will bond to the bird in the mirror instead of to you as its caretaker,, i found this in website, but i am not sure if this is true also BEWARE! if you take the mirror away, it might make your bird depressed
