Hi there! I was planning on ordering some Eucalyptus branches/leaves from an Etsy shop that seemed great (diphrentcreatureLLC), but looks like they are gone! I really want to try Eucalyptus for my Green Cheeks. I've seen wonderful photos like this from @EucProducts that used to be on AA, and hasn't been active for a long time.

Does anyone know where I can get good Eucalyptus branches?

Thank you!

China Prairie used to have them, but I'm not sure how long they are.

I purchased some several months ago from China Prairie, but it was a different kind of euc I think. The leaves were much bigger, and only on tiny twig like branches. I tried them with a cockatoo I was fostering, and he was somewhat interested in them, but I did not purchase them again. They didn’t last long, even though I thought they smelled wonderful (my family disagreed).

Thank you @aooratrix and @PetFoster
Yeah, I don’t like the looks of the China Prairie stuff. I want to really hang it all over, not just have little chunks.
I work as a floral designer and we get tons on, but it’s all sprayed before it gets there with something so it’s no good for parrots.
@PetFoster I love how it smells too :)

Does anyone else have a source?

its been about a year since I ordered the China Prairie stuff, but it actually shipped from Euc Products, I think! You might reach out to them and ask if they can ship what you are looking for. Eucproducts.com. Let us know what you find out!

Thank you @PetFoster ! I just ordered their 2 foot branches w/leaves so hopefully they'll turn out nice. Thanks so much!
