Over the last week or so, I've had several orders arrive, I wanted to wait until the last one got here to take pictures.

I big thanks to Jan at Pionus and Ann at CA Bird Nerds for their fabulous items, sales and pricing.

Also, thanks to Saroj to leading me to Rich at Twin Leather, finally got around to ordering that famous round leather lace you speak so highly about.

Oh .. and something I'm really, really excited about .. water bottles!! After reading tons and tons of threads about them, and hearing so many good things about the Edstrom Water Buddy <no longer made> I decided to see if I might still find any in the market .. and I did!! I had to order from a Canadian site <ouchie on shipping> but I'm really excited about trying them. NONE of my birds are water bottle trained, I've tried, and got frustrated because the Lixits I have just kept leaking over time, and would give up.

So .. finally here's a boat load of pics .. of all kinds of stuff ..

First off .. the goodies from Jan .. I ordered bunches of parts, but also ordered a couple of her toys that I love .. her "Fun Time Toy" is amazing, so much stuff for only $9.95, I don't know how she does it. I also tried her newer toy, the Coconut on the Half Shell .. it's so, so cute!! Great for putting a few treats or foot toys in! Again, don't know how she does it, all SS chain, lots of fun beads, only $4.50!! Got two large SS buckets for Mojo <making him a special toy> .. awesome buckets, nice and heavy. I ordered two of the Scooter Z's skewers .. which I really like and will be ordering more of for sure. Jan also sent me a huge bag of free samples :heart::heart:

Thanks Jan!!

Okay .. continuing ...

From Ann at California Bird Nerds .. tons of super fun parts .. I'm really excited about the little baby pacifiers I got, they are adorable, and the 8 way connectors she searched high and low for .. I have some future ideas for those. The little wicker baskets are favored here by my Quakers, I've been out for a while, so they were very happy to have them again.

Thanks Ann!!


Then from a shop in Canada called "Flower Town Chinchillas" I finally found my Edstrom Water Buddies. I order 4 of them, and hope they live up to their reputation.


Last but not least, my leather order from Rich at Twin Leather .. who is an absolute sweetie of a guy. His leather smells so good, and the quality is simply amazing!!

Please give a review of the water bottles once you use them. I'm interested in them for my birds AND my bunnies!

Again nice haul!

I tried looking on both Jan's and Ann's site. Where did you bite the SS buckets?

Wow, I have a water buddy! It came with Toady. I'm not using at the moment but may start. It didn't come with anything to connect to the cage though. How does it connect?
