    Pictures New foraging boxes!

    Taco, Kamara and Aurélie got some new foraging boxes today! :D So far we've got lots of paper and cardboard to shred, wooden foot toys, coin sorters with nutriberries stuffed inside, and some paper cups with their favourite treats. They all seem a little bamboozled but intrigued. Taco's eyeing...

    Pictures Cage set up advice

    I've had Tango for over a year now, and this is her first cage. I'm very aware that cockatiels need lots of toys and stimulation. I rearrange and switch out almost all her furniture when I clean out her cage. I keep the door open all day so she can move around as she likes. I put lino on the...

    Something I've noticed...

    So I've mentioned before that my Kiwi doesnt have much interest in playing with toys - but she does have a few staples... mostly things that go crinkle or crunch. Well one of her favorite toys that we try to keep stalked up on is the braided pieces of straw (does anyone know what I'm talking...

    zinc in my toys? where to find stainless steel

    hiya! so recently i read up on zinc toxicity in birds and read about how to test for zinc using magnets. I tested all of my birds toys and all the metal parts on them are magnetic! so that means it can't be stainless steel or aluminium which are bird safe as far as i know and according to the...

    Slade's love of Cheeky Chirp Toys is never ending!

    I put a new one from @webchirp into his cage right before bed last night, and this video was too cute to not share with you guys! He really does love everything she makes.

    Bird cage do’s and dont’s

    Hi! It’s been a while since I’ve posted, I’ve been super busy and got all tied up in life. Anyhow, I’ve upgraded Leaf to a giant boy cage and I’m looking for help on what is okay and what is not in terms of putting stuff in his cage. I’ll attach a picture and see what you guys think as well...

    Why sell something unsafe?

    I bought Ollie a new toy today, and didn't really look at it super closely since it's the same type of tennis shoes he's had before but a different manufacturer. When I got home I realized they were all tied and double knotted. I didn't get a pic before I untied them but all I could think was...

    Dollhouse Wood Question!

    So my dad has old wood used to make dollhouses laying around and keeps trying to pawn it off on me for the birds. I'm what many would call overly cautious aka paranoid and if I haven't bought it myself or from a reputable place I won't use it usually. He's saying the wood is fine, but doesn't...

    Taking apart her foraging toys...

    Hi! I have a macaw, Ollie, who loves to figure out how things are put together... so she can disassemble them and chew on the metal parts (her favorite). She's figured out multiple foraging toys... and if i ziptie them to stay together, she figures how to undo that too! She can take apart...

    Mahogany Pods

    How should I introduce my cockatiel to toys?

    Hello! I've recently gotten a pet cockatiel named Mika on Saturday (2/3/4), so I've had her for about 5 days. My mom says I should put toys in her cage while I'm at school so she's not so bored, though I'm not for sure on how to introduce her to them. I have a few different ones to show her, but...
