Plastic chain perch

[Irie5447]

Hi everyone. I wanted to post this cause my bird loves them so much. All it is is yellow plastic chain you can buy by the foot at home Depot/ Lowes. I have it in all my birds cages and playstands and they love it! You can cut it to any length and string it anyway you like. I strand some from one end to the other in the cage as a perch and then hang 2 or three different lengths from the toy hook on their playstands and they absolutely love them! They are so cheap and easy and birds love them.

I have two of these, hanging from the ceiling, with a rope perch between them and made a swing. The birdies love it.

I love that stuff! When Kito rendered herself flightless I strung plastic chain to connect her favorite places in the birdroom. It becomes a little more stable to walk on for flightless birds if you twist it.

I already have some of that chain in Josey's cage but I may have to fashion a perch out of it for she has a boing in the middle of her cage that I recently replaced as she chewed on the old one and is chewing on the new one also so it is destined for the trash, no more boings for her. She used to leave it alone and had the old one in her cage for years but now she has found it something to tear up and those chains would work nicely to hang by several of those hooks.

wow great idea, but how do you connect them to cage or other places? Cn you show a close up photo, I would surely like to try those for Kookie

I use either stainless steel links with the screw like most store bought toys come with or if I want to make it tight for a perch I will use heavy duty plastic zip/ cable ties and cut the chain a tad short and tighten cable ties until tight on each end.

I have lots of plastic chain in cages, hanging from the ceiling and connecting perches, my fids, especially Louie the zon, love them to pieces. Best thing every made for parrots!!!

I bought my at Home Depot. I have them all over my house strung tightly for walkways and perches...Cheap too! You can also hang small toys from them to make it more exciting.
