toys

I am still in a huge shock so sorry if my grammar is not on point for this one.:jawdrop1: For you to understand this i have to explain why I decided to get Kiwi (my female budgie). We went to a friends birthday and we bought a budgie for him since he said he has wanted budgies for a long time...

My GCC needs stimulation. She gets bored quickly. Trouble is, she's incredibly shy and timid and is terrified of any and all new toys. Any ideas for DIY foraging toys, or non-scary looking smaller ones that I can purchase? :cinnamongcc1:

Does anyone else have an Eckie that plays like this hahahaha? This is seriously the ONLY time she makes any sounds! She's so weird lol.

So after spending some time getting to know the fids and their preferences, I have determined the need for some custom perches around the house (and eventual acrylic toys). Charlie loves to perch on top of the kitchen cabinets and on top of my spoon collection. He'll sit up there for quite some...

A couple weeks ago I bought a GCC. I'm constantly looking for new foraging ideas and trying to mix up the treats I put in them. I work night shift so I really stuff his cage full of snacks and foraging toys to help keep him busy/ quiet while I'm sleeping. So far it's working out well but I know...

What are your favorite DIY toys for your canaries/finches? And what materials are safe to use? I'm scared of using plastic beats and stuff like that :(

Have you tried this with your Grey? We decided to up our paper roll game by making funny sounds on the other end of the roll - she LOVED IT!

This is us setting up a new cage for our green cheek conure, Happy! Watch how we set up the cage, play top area, arrange our perches, toys, food, and water!! Please ask us any questions you have in the comments, we are happy to answer :D

Hi! I recently adopted an albino 4 month old budgie. It's been about a week since the adoption, and she is already loving her home. She eats, sleeps, drinks very easily. She enjoys strutting around my bedroom and exploring. She even likes to cuddle! One thing I've noticed is that she isn't fond...

Decided that if I am going to get a parrot named Oppy (Oppenheimer), it is mandatory that I get him an atom to play on. Since I am fairly handy and these seem hard to come by, especially sturdy in construction, I decided to make my own. This is just a first initial test to familiarize myself...

Recommendations on bird safe woods and food color dyes for home made toys?

Anyone have any recommendations for the best affordable source for 100% cotton rope (bulk purchase)?

I'll be watching over my sister's caique sometime next month. (If anyone saw my previous post about that, I actually thought it was going to be June, not July. :P) I want to keep him entertained while my sister's away, and I was thinking of picking up some toys at the dollar store for him. I...

Louise is in need of some new toys. Ones she can chew up and destroy. She has quite the collection of bells from AS that she loves, but needs some to chew on. She has about destroyed a wiffle ball that had wood connected to it. She goes through small beads in minutes. Ideas and vendors? thanks.

Hello again everyone! Starting to get a lot more serious about Caique ownership (Still have not decided on one or two yet) and so I am starting to put together a list of expenses. I wanted to see if everyone here could (particularly Caique or similar sized bird owners) help me build out this...

I am going to be a first time bird parent in a couple of weeks. I'm adopting 2 three-year old linnies. They are a bonded pair, male and female. I am reading madly to learn as much as possible. (I've already learned tons here, thanks) I will appreciate all your help in answering my questions...

I'm going by Lowes Hardware after work today and picking up some hooks to secure the toys to the cage. what metals should I request? I know nothing with zinc or lead.

I would like to share my hobby with you... I make all the toys for my feathered friends and they seem to enjoy it a lot. Even the process of making the toys :-D This first one is a play-feeding-station for my little ones. When I sell a baby I prefer that the new owner buys this as well, so...

Hello, everyone. I'm having a problem with my Quaker Parrot and only just now realized that he overpreens his feathers. His belly and back have been reduced to down, he very frequently preens and nibbles his feathers, and I notice him ending up accidentally plucking out feathers and promptly...

Hi everyone, We are Marley and Grey's owners, we've had them for a few months now and they seem very settled and happy. However they love to play and always want to come out. Their cage is on a table about 2 foot high. Can anyone recommend a ladder or toy or something I can use to allow them...
