Whopper roll-up by Cage and Queen

Rico's favorite toy is the whopper roll-up and I am having a terrible time finding them. I placed an order at Parrot World which indicates they are on back order and out of stock. I originally ordered them from Busy Beaks who indicated that they were being discontinued. So, I freaked out but luckily found them at Parrot World. Now I am worried that Parrot World is perhaps having a hard time obtaining them. I cannot seem to find an email address for Cage and Queen. Does anyone know of anywhere else I can try to look for them?? This has been the only toy that I have found that Rico actively plays with and destroys. He goes through about one per 2-3 weeks, so I typically buy 3-4 at a time. They are on his cage and perch. He does have other toys, but he honestly only loves this one. He is so funny as he'll hang upside down from them and will actually forage using them. I know this sounds silly, but I am a bit desperate. It took a long time (and a lot of money) to find a toy he actually engages with. I have tried looking for the grass mats they are made from in town to make my own and have not been able to find them at Michael's, Target, Walmart, Pier One, etc. Thanks for your help!

yea I just googled it, its out of stock at parrot world, boo!! Looks like a fun toy too. Im wondering if you cant buy them online than would it be possible to make them?? Maybe get some burlap and then stuff it with paper shreds? Its worth a shot if you cant find these anywhere. Ohhh wouldn't it make sense, when you finally find a toy that your bird likes, you cant find it!!
