alex2014 Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Just got a Java tree for Alex and Rocco. They freaked out when I brought it into the room, I'll just let them get used to it at their own pace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greytness Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I recently picked one up for our new baby miligold Macaw. He loves to be perched there, and he won't budge from it for hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greywings Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 That is a beauty! Maybe moving one or two of their familiar toys to the branch would help them accept it sooner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex2014 Posted November 19, 2014 Author Share Posted November 19, 2014 That's what I did, hung some of their toys on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kins2321@yahoo.com Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I have the same tree! They LOVE it! A pain in the butt to clean their poop, but that just means they love it Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex2014 Posted November 19, 2014 Author Share Posted November 19, 2014 I was going to get some vinyl tile and fit in onto the base without gluing it to make it easier to clean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kins2321@yahoo.com Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 UMMMMM.... So, just as a great suggestion, go to Walmart, get " painters plastic". Place it by 10 by 10 under the tree. They are very messy! My birds have their own room, and I never close their cages. Having " open cage concept", has been alot of work, but I am an expert now.

murfchck Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 I love these trees but I have found the more I tried to rig them to be less messy, the more messy they looked and were. lol I do not get why with all the trees they make, not a one completely catches the poop. There is always one branch that hangs over the base and that is where they migrate too. I have done the plastic, I have used the painters paper and put clips on the edges to keep the paper from flying around, I have one that we put the peel and stick tile on but the best thing I can do is to let them be and get my scraper and broom and clean up when they go to bed. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talon Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 I have one and have lots of boings twisted and hung all over it. I am hoping to get another one in the near future to put in my outdoor bird room....hoping to find a Craigslist one cheaper! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inara Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Hey! Very nice! I just spent an hour putting together one that I just got for HRH Inara. Will report back tomorrow. She is sleeping as I type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kins2321@yahoo.com Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Inara.... put the plastic under the tree, cover with strips of plastic over the base. In the summer, easy to clean outside, but winter is tough! Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quirky Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Just another suggestion for the base to help with clean up, outdoor carpeting cut to fit into the base with a single slit cut on one side to get it around the trunk. I bought a tree stand off craigslist that have 2 of these in the base. I can take it outside and spray it off since its plastic it can also be sprayed with a weak bleach solution to disinfect it.

alex2014 Posted November 22, 2014 Author Share Posted November 22, 2014 I put a perch on the outside of Alex's cage and his curiosity finally got the best of him as he climbed from the perch to check out the new jave tree. I'll have to work with Rocco next Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
