wouldn't that make them think that it is food?I've also seen places like zoos make paints for their animals using natural things like berry juice and that kind of thing.
Ofcourse not. I did not know which is why I asked. Not everyone is aware of all bird related things, which is why we all come to the forum. To learn and grow.No. Watercolor paints are not bird-safe. Some are toxic. Do you want to risk poisoning your birds? You can use food coloring to dye toy parts. Many people do it, wood and many other toy parts are dyed with food coloring.
I am a watercolorest and to answer that question, NO. Most all watercolor paints are toxic to both humans and birds. Water color paints are not safe.I’m making a bunch of DIY bird toys for my birds. Can I use watercolour paints for painting the toys?
Thank you.
Well like I said, zoos provide it as a "paint", not in toy parts. I said not to use it on toys. The idea is an animal could paint with their toes/fingers/whatever and if they ingest it, it's no big deal because it's natural and safe.wouldn't that make them think that it is food?
I always start with asking, would I eat it?I’m making a bunch of DIY bird toys for my birds. Can I use watercolour paints for painting the toys?
I used AmeriColor food coloring for toys and they came out nice and bright and it was easy to use =^^=
I dyed a like 5000 snappy beads for the Scream Team. They were in snappy bead heaven!
