I am considering getting one of these but wasn't sure if birds would actually use them or not. I have a linnie and a parrotlet. They both love to share a sleep tent ... so I thought this might be an option for them if they're looking for a change. Has anyone had birds that go in them ... and if so, I guess the parrotlet would be okay with a small but the linnie might need a medium????

I have had those types in the past. I tried a few with some love birds, a parrotlet..But with the shape of them i had a hard time getting them into it. The openess of the hut is more appealing to play in. LOL. Rico is in his right now..facing the other way so his tail is sticking out..I gotta get a picture of that. hahahaha

Hi Tamara, thanks for the suggestion. I already have the tent ... which they love. I just thought I'd like to 'mix it up a bit' for them and try something new. But, I've purchased lots of things that did not go over well so thought I'd ask around a bit before taking the plunge. If I do buy a sleepee teepee my guess is the small would be a good size for the parrotlet ... what do you think?

My conures have 1 and they LOVE it, they sleep in it every night, I put 2 small happy huts in their cage, and they just wanted 1 in their cage, so they could snuggle together, so I only have 1 happy hut in their cage now. The cockatiels also have 2 in their cage, they don't sleep in the happy hut, they sleep on the top, LOL! Cookie and Pumpkin do, the other 2 tiels that are in the cage with them, they are scared of the happy huts, haha!

That picture cracks me up!!! Most of my little birds use the tents, however I had luck with Connor and Joey using these beds that looked like trees. (I can't find a picture :( ) They were on sale at Petsmart so I bought them and tried them. Basically they were brown, plush, and looked like a tree trunk with a yellow hole in it. They actually lasted for quite a while, so I was impressed with my $8.00 purchase.
