Hello fellow bird nerds!
So I am actually waiting on a replacement part because the top of my Prevue Hendryx cage is not fitting correctly (you can see its wonky in the photos) but I thought I would go ahead and play around with "stuff" placement anyway. I'm still working on getting some natural branches and I have a rope perch I made that I have not put in there yet. My new cockatiel baby won't be coming home for a few more weeks yet so there is time to change stuff. But I was curious about what all you seasoned bird owners think about the setup so far? I plan to attach some foraging toys, a mineral block and a cuddle bone and as I mentioned of course the natural branch perches but otherwise I'm still in planning mode and open to suggestions!
Should I eliminate the big dowel perch completely? It came with the cage. I know dowels aren't great for their feet but it does span across the cage nicely.
Also I thought the platform swing was really cute and fun looking but now I'm slightly concerned about the chains on it, has anyone heard of/had problems with these? No particular brand. Got it off Amazon. Reviews were good.
Thanks in advance for your time and consideration! Bird love forever!!!![Red heart :heart: ❤](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/joypixels/emoji-assets@5.0/png/64/2764.png)
