Where do I start, looking for different toys for all my birds?
I'm not able to make any now, due to my swollen fingers... toys look very much the same on each web site.. I don't really know what to look for as they aren't into playing with toys much, they don't bother with stuff to destroy..so what does this leave me to get for them?
I'm in don't know mode! :shrug: :shrug: LOL...
Any thoughts please?

I personally really like My Safe Bird Store. My birds love those finger traps with shredded paper on both ends. Birds usually like toys that they can demolish. You can also take the cardboard part of the toilet paper and stuff crumbled paper on both ends. You can also stick popsicle sticks all over it so the birds can chew that too.

Edit: oops I'm sorry. I forgot you can't make toys. MSBS is my favorite website to buy toy parts. Type the word FIRST in the promo code to get 10% off on your order.

Edit again: I forgot your birds don't like to shred toys. I would add some millet in hidden places in the toys.

I really like the above site. She has an option where you tell her how much you want to spend and she will pick out toys for you. You can probably tell her what you know your birds don't like.

I got her $25 toy surprise box a couple of months ago, and I was happy. It is nicely packaged.

One of the things she has available is a bag of pinecones, that have been baked to be safe. My birds really loved those.

Thank you both for your replies...
Have my daughter looking into the surprise box...
if I send for it from UK have to pay tax on it which is usually more than the goods.. as she is in the USA working, she can purchase and carry home in her luggage...
thanks... big chirps for you both.. :thanks:

If your daughter has luggage space for bird stuff, have her bring home some Nutriberries. Cockatiels LOVE those.
