In my continual struggle against parrot destruction, I want to have a porch built, the front door is slowly being eaten away, Id like to move the new internal door into the stone surround at the front door, is this acceptible from an aesthetics point, I would give me a bigger reveal on the inside, where the bird wont be able to hang off anything and chew. I have been advised to kill it many times, its not going to happen. Heres his latest chew toy.

I'd just leave it Jas until the parrot passes away naturally.
If you make it so that it can't chew there it will only find somewhere else to chew _________________ DIY | DIY Video |

Any takers on moving the internal door into the external section after the porch goes up, it would need an additional step, proud of what exists now. _________________ Stella Stella Stella oy oy oy |
