shane Posted November 19, 2013 Posted November 19, 2013 I had built a play area, but the newspaper floor looked so crappy in my living room, and everything bounced off the newspapers/wood anyway that I was using as a play gym floor. I saw some trees online that had a sand base to catch all of the food/poop, etc... So I tried to mimic that. I'll see if Scarlett likes it.
shane Posted November 19, 2013 Author Posted November 19, 2013 thanks - She won't climb to new levels yet - even though in her cage she hangs upside down and climbs every where
katana600 Posted November 19, 2013 Posted November 19, 2013 Nicely done! She looks so happy and relaxed on the stand you made. Love the way you made the base. It looks really great. You are smitten with her, I can tell. I believe it is mutual.
shane Posted November 19, 2013 Author Posted November 19, 2013 thanks. I saw those java trees were set in a sand base, so I figured it would be easier to clean up.
Inara Posted November 19, 2013 Posted November 19, 2013 WOW Shane!!! I was just getting ready to post some photos of the little stand I made for Inara today and by comparison it looks so tiny and simple. Yours just rocks like a boss!! I'm going to have to show yours to my other half, the engineer, and see if yours inspires him to improve on my little table one. hahaha Fantastic job, Shane. Your Miss Scarlett looks mighty happy. What a great parront she found.
shane Posted November 20, 2013 Author Posted November 20, 2013 thanks everyone - I really appreciate it. I saw someone elses pvc stand in this forum somewhere, so then I went out and bought pvc too. She is on it nearly all day. and the sand is perfect! way easier to clean up then newspapers. (& sand is only $5 for a 50 pound bag at home depot).
Grumpy Posted November 23, 2013 Posted November 23, 2013 A nice play area indeed, but please be aware of chains, ropes if any ... mu bird almost got killed today stucking its head in a noose he'd made himself. I can't even think of what could've happened if I'd not been there.
shane Posted November 23, 2013 Author Posted November 23, 2013 Thanks. wow, sorry to hear about your grey. that is scary. I thought about that when adding the chain so I attached the chain to various perches to not allow enough slack so that it cannot loop back and make a noose. I have the bottom hanging loose but she never goes to the bottom, but I'll still attach it to be safe. thanks. and again, glad yours is ok... Shane
Burak Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 Nice looking, I'll consider myself building one like this:)
