I have seen some strange things during all this time and I would like to point out a few things that have just floored me when it comes to peoples thoughts on bird toys. Here is a sample of some of the things I have heard "he doesn't like toys he just wrecks them" or "this is the only toy he hasn't destroyed". Well birds do wreck toys. That is what they do. They use the toys to keep themselves busy and it also helps condition their beaks and nails. There are many types of toys such as preening toys, foraging toys, swings, wooden toys, leather toys, feather toys, foot toys, you name it there are toys for just about everything. We all know toys can be expensive however this is an expense that any bird owner should count on as a monthly expense when you own a parrot. Toys should be changed regularly and if they are destroying the toy then WONDERFUL! then the toy has fulfilled it's purpose and the bird is getting exercise and conditioning and stimulation!
