I have a confession to make. I have only ever ordered Maddie toys online once. *gasp*

Yes, she gets homemade as well as store bought toys, foraging opportunities, etc, but I'm long overdue for an online order. For food items, treats, toys, whatever.

So, what does everyone get for their p'lets and other birds that are small in stature? Any recommendations are greatly appreciated!

My parrotlet LOVES wicker (only thing he will destroy) and anything with plastic and bells. :)

Never had a parrotlet, but we have a budgie. She loves to play on the big birds toys. She LOVES shredders. Whether you make those into a toy, or just string some along the bars of her cage (she loves that because she has something to chew on while she climbs around). Also loves those shreddable pinata toys. Likes to pick apart loofa.

Really, it depends on the bird. Does Maddie tend to like soft wood toys, dried leaves (like shredders), cotton, or plastic? Does she like sounds (bells, shakers)? Climbing toys?

Parrotlets love toys that spin and move, and baskets full of small things with various textures to forage through.

Sorry for the late reply, I have limited access to a computer right now. Thanks for all of the suggestions, guys! I know Maddie likes soft woods, plastic, and anything to forage through. I'll probably end up getting her a variety to see if she takes interest in anything else. Thanks again! :)
