Inexpensive Toys for your Pet Bird
This birdie tip comes to us from Carol Frank, owner of Avian Adventures Cages. Carol wants you to know, that one of her bird's favorite toys, is to simply give them an empty paper towel or bath tissue cardboard roll! She says they have fun with it for hours and it's an inexpensive toy! Also, when birds destroy toys, and you find pieces in the bottom of the cage, save them! Pieces of wood that have not been chewed up, beads, leather, and many of the trinkets found on toys, can be restrung to create a new toy! You can purchase rope or leather designed for re-stringing, and quickly and inexpensively have a toy your bird hasn't seen yet!

I have a great toy/play area for your bird. If you are crafty you can make a net out of hemp rope. Every place you knot, tie a treat or a toy to the knot. It takes a little time, but it is worth it. It takes about an hour to tie on the toys and treats, on a 6 foot by 6 foot net. |

Another Great toy, Pippie, a green parrot, gets bored really fast. If you put organic peanut butter on a piece of hemp rope, then add seeds and another layer of peanut butter and let it dry for a few days, it sets up. It is hard and is a challage for them to eat. |

My African Greys love to tear boxes apart. So I will put cardboard boxes in their cage for their entertainment. I will put a treat inside the box for an extra surprise once they get to the inside of the box. |
