Michellec Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 http://nalanitoys.com/Africangreybirdtoys.htm Where else do you order toys? i want her to be busy and challenged during the workday hours she is home alone. I would like to switch Nalas toys out every few months....except for any that she seems really attached to. When/how often do you rotate toys?

Kizzybird Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I can't say I've ordered from that site specifically, but there are many good toy sites to chose from. I rotate several of Kizzy's toys in his cage weekly. He's a young bird and he doesn't get upset over the change. I buy my own toy parts now and also have a toy box in the bottom of his cage- I wrap nuts and foot toys in brown paper so he has to forage for them. He has to spend the day in his cage because I work so I want to keep him engaged and interested. I found these 2 to be good sites to make your own toys etc http://www.birdsnways.com/birds/ihand.htm#h2110617 http://foragingforparrots.com/ideas/super-easy-rice-cake-foraging-idea/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timbersmom Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I buy a lot of my stuff from http://www.drsfostersmith.com Also from my http://www.mysafebirdstore.com/ I've found decent deals on rope perches etc. on Amazon.com The best deals I've gotten are at a bird fair. There is one about an hour from here twice a year. I don't have a specific rotation schedule, which might be a mistake. When I notice Timber has lost interest in a toy or doesn't mess with it for a week, I put another one in. Rinse and repeat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kizzybird Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 How do you find bird fairs in your area? Our Minneapolis bird fairs are listed on craigslist in the pets section. My avian vet has given me info on bird clubs too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
