Does anyone have some Frasier products toys they would be willing to sell? These stainless and aluminum toys are not made anymore but last a lifetime. I am specifically looking for the "spinner" the "play box" and the "play strip. Thanks for any info or suggestions!

They are great products, aren't they? I only have the canister although my Goffin's took it apart and I can't find some of the pieces but not planning on selling it. Have no idea where you can get them.

Well, actually my company manufactured these toys for Mr. Frasier way back when. Sadly he passed away several years ago. His daughter and her husband were going to continue the product line, but I guess they decided they were too busy with their own successful business. I would like to bring them back to market. I have several pictures but no physical samples. I'm sure I can get them done, but it might just take a little longer.

Hi Everyone,

I would like to get your feedback if you have a moment regarding Frasier Products toys. What would you think if the wing-nuts and bolts etc. were made of aluminum? They then could be brightly colored, would be lighter (safer), and just as durable and washable. Any thoughts?

I would personally be happy with aluminum. It would make it more accessible for the smaller mechanical birds too

Thank you Mizzely. Is that because the stainless parts are sometimes too heavy for smaller birds?

Yeah. My quaker can still undo most of them but a lighter weight would open up more possibilities I think :)

The more good toys in the market the better, they look really fun. I've seen a few online and I know my Alexandrines at least and a few cockatoos I know who would love them. Aluminum would be nice.

Love any feedback.. Is anyone willing to test a prototype for me in about a month. I will send one to you for free. Please have a larger bird for the test. This is the Playbox with non removable parts. You can't tell from the computer rendering, but the ends of the threaded rods will be slightly split apart, so the wing nut can not come off.

You've got a variety of birds to test.

Our miligold Buzzard would happily test your larger toys & we have 2 goffins that would love to test any medium or mechanical toys. (The green cheeks don't play with much besides bells and the occasional preener toy. :rolleyes: But they do beat the tar out of the bells!)

But if you're wanting to test durability, @Macawnutz does have a couple of macs that are pretty rough on toys.
Plus she's more aware of the pros and cons of different features. That is if she has the time; she is also one of our vendors and I think our flocks and hers keep her pretty busy. She may be able to give your info to some of her other clients if they are interested. Seeing as she knows our birds preferences, she may know who would be the best tester for each toy.


@sunnysmom's Elvis is even more mechanical than our goffin and I think @JLcribber's Tika & @cassiesdad's Milton may be pretty diabolical as well. They can pick locks! :shocked4:

I know there are others with large birds or varied flocks, but I don't know their playstyles. :think1:

I will throw my hand up in the air for a big bird to test your toys, only issue is I am in Aus.

Great line of toys!
Best of luck....there's lots of room in the market place for indestructible toys designed for the largest birds.
