caleigha Posted June 4, 2010 Posted June 4, 2010 What a great find aeriga - thanks for sharing that! I just made a variation of this one for Chili, and he is enjoying it. He really likes the end of the toy where the plastic bead is tied on - are those okay for him to chew on?

Jayd Posted June 4, 2010 Posted June 4, 2010 (edited) I used some of my embroidery thread to string the straws. How do you know if it is bird safe? Most threads, ropes etc from retail store's are chemically treated for color or manufacturing etc, this is poison to our fids. Leather can only be veggie tanned! Exmaple, smell a cord of hemp or twine fro a retail store...embroidery thread, they might get there feet or legs tangled in it! Here's one safe store, there's many!
