Great foraging toy for med.sized birds
I saw this at the Birdbrain in Denver, and just bought one at first to check out if the birds would like it - I was fairly comfortable that Valo would go for it since he loves everything plastic, but it was also a great success with Ms. Bella girl so I went back and got another one. They can entertain themselves with this thing for hours.



Thought I should let you know in case you ever come across this toy!

You know what I noticed even more? That a clothes drying rack sitting on a tray would make an awsome small bird gym!! Cool toy, is there stuff in the cup? Is that the idea?

Funny thing, Bob is busy rooting pine nuts out of the one hanging on the sitting room perch Took him about 30 seconds to pry it open and start noshing, though he's confronted by the lid that keeps closing when he removes a nut. I figure he's happier rooting for his pre-bedtime snack.
It's a great toy - all of the kids seem to like it.

Found some great foraging toys for Newt and Elliot. Newt not only learned in about 10 seconds how to get the nuts out ( I had to read the instructions on how to figure it out), he then disassembled the chain and hook it was attached to. LOL
