Ok toys for these big guys, it wasn’t until I got Darkoodgee, my Red Tail Black Cockatoo, that I realised just how quickly a toy can be destroyed.
So now with that in mind I do him a few different types of toy; “Destructor toys” and “A Bit of Time toys”
Destructor toys are things like shredders, quick chews, paper, and soft wood ones. I know he can get quick and instant satisfaction for “laying his beak into” some nice soft pine or a great chewy Bagel toy. Sometimes he will have to work a bit to get to a piece but pretty much these toys are there for a good time not a long time J
A Bit of Time toys is exactly that, these will take a bit of time to get thru. Harder woods, more pieces, things are a bit more complicated to work at, maybe a bit of chewing to work at getting a treasured treat. This is the toy I give him if I know we are out for the day or something with a bit more staying power to play with.
By giving you bird a mix of Destructor & Bit of time toys, add some footies, fun perches and a swing or two and you are on your way to a happy feathered friend.
No matter what I have used bird safe materials to make these toys.
As with all birds no matter what size, the most important thing is to know your bird, no matter how safe a bird is some birds out there seem to be able to find a way of getting in to trouble.
Always make sure there are no long threads, or lengths to get caught in.
