    It wouldn't work for my bird as I have a Chihuahua and three cats. It would provide them with entertainment but not me.
    It would be a good idea for a bird only home.

    WOW !! great invention and hope he does get a job, with that mind- robotics could be where we just have to plug in a pattern-it cuts itself, sews itself and we have a beautiful new quilt .. LOL

    I would love one of those for my parrots. They would have a ball I am sure.

    Neat idea, I wonder how fast it can go.

    I love it!!!!! I have a small greencheek parrot- dwarf conure about the size of a large sparrow. These birds are amazingly smart. Someone on YouTube suggested the Beach Boys theme- I Get Around. Thank you for sharing.
