New play area!

I had never hear of a boing until I started posted here. Well I looked into it and bought one for Roscoe. I thought he would take a bunch of time to get used to it but the other day I put him on it and he LOVED it! He currently loves to try to chew the cloth off Today he was flapping maddly on it to make the bell ring

Thanks for intorducing a new play area to me!



And for some reason now that he likes the movement of the boing he went on his swing for the first time, after 2 months of it in his cage

I have one kinda like that but a cheaper version and you clip it to the sides of the cage. I got a discount on my one and it ended up being two bucks :). I hope my bird likes it. Over here the ones you have i think are called bungy's or something?

We have four of those hanging from the ceiling in various parts of our home. Our GCC and our Sun fly off to them when they have the run of the house when we get home. They each have one in their cage as well. Our Grey - he seems to have no interest in his at all. He's a big weenie though.

We don't give those to our Too as he'll chew that in a matter of hours. Just like he went thru his 2.5 inch dia rope perch. It lasted about 5 hours.

I wish our Grey would do that though. How sweet!

Pollo chews the soft rope ones so we got him one made of Sisal which he won't chew.You might try this for your Too.

I have them in my cockatiel flights and they love 'em. My greys are a different story.
