I tried paper. Still always paper on the cage floor (he just walks on it, not tried to tear apart). I have crumbled paper on top for him to push around when getting seeds outside the cage (pellets are inside the cage). But that all he does is push it to get to the food.

Some of the new things I got from Lil Monsters in November. He ignores the flag toy, which has balsa rope/string, and the Chinese finger toy. He only goes near them if he realizes I put millets there.

I have other hanging toys but they not anything to shred.
The swing he on a lot looks like it is something to attack, but he just swings. Does not peck at it.

I have also tried toilet paper, with and without a roll center, different types of paper and made them hang, and old cloths (like a bathroom washcloth). Nothing!
I spent money (had to budget for it) on him and he does not even bother with things I have purchased. :/
