Speaking of toys...I went to a different bird store over the weekend and was not to thrilled about the selection of Big bird toys, they had some, but when I went to look at them a bunch of bugs came running out! I was like, oh no! I am not bringing those into my house! I have been in search of a great online place for cockatoo toys. I want the big long full of wood to much on toys. It seems like the ones strung on a metal rope chain seems to be the best. Where do you all get great exellent Cockatoo toys?
Also I wanted to mention that I found taking my Cockatoo outside on her swing and putting the water bottle down on a spray myst and spraying her with it gently seems to be a lot of fun for her. She starts lifting her wings and wants to fluff out and the spray falls on her all over. I have done this inside the cage as well and it seems to mellow the bird out.
