African Greys Playstand

[asianphan]

Can I use a 4by4 wood that we use for the fence? The green one or I have to use the yellow wood? Im thinking about building a tall playstand for Pepper. As of right now he has a small playstand and another one on top of his cage.

What kind of wood is it that you used for your fence? Pine (dry, not fresh) is fine for parrots. Just be sure never to use any treated wood, toxic chemicals are used.

if the wood is green from a treatment (not just green as in not yet fully dried) then i would say no - any anti-pest or anti-rot treatment on wood is going to be very dangerous to a bird who will be chewing on it

Wood made to be used as fence posts would be treated to prevent them from rotting in the ground. You should not use these to make anything for your bird. You could always nail two untreated regular pine 2x4s together to make a 4x4 post, if that's what you would like to use.

Did you get rid of the conure you had? Do you have a Grey now?
