Parrot Toy Ideas

Some of the toys my parrots have enjoyed over the years are:

• apple tree limbs and twigs with leaves still on them
• one-piece clothes pins often found in craft stores

• leather shoe laces and also cloth ones
• whole dandelion plants, washed off- They are also good for them!
• An old, stringy washcloth, just watch them so they don't get tangled up and injure themselves.
• A piece of cholla if you live near cactus. I have a cousin who supplies it to me from the desert.
• An old plastic cup with a nut or dry pieces of spaghetti or macaroni. Just don't use too many in case they eat them, it might swell up on them.
• Cook up half an ear of corn on the cob, messy but good for them, and they love shredding them.

If anyone else has some good ideas, I know my parrot will appreciate them!
