Woah! Those are some really great toys! Love the hanging net! And that paddle pop thingy is awesome! How'd you get the holes in them? Cougar just went through hers in about 1 week! She would love a toy like that!

Oh I have that peanut toy for Grover. He loves it! I put carrot chunks in it and the giant macaw sized rowdy bush and he spends HOURS twisting and shaking it to get them out!

It took me the longest time to realise there are holes in the top to put the treats in because I used to sit there shoving them in the sides!!

Good job on the net too!

Jess great job! Two quick notes though. I took the plastic peanut out and put other yummy treats in, it gets alot more use. 2nd, becareful with the hanging basket. That type of roping has strings that can tangle around a birdies toes and cut off circulation. Besides that you did a really great job. Jasper really took to that rope right away. That is the sign of a happy, well sttled bird. Congrats.

Lol I got the holes in the paddlepops by using a hole punch lol.. thats why theres holes in the ends too *sigh* because its a double hole punch...

And yeah Jasper always wants to examine things as soon as he see's them... which is odd for an eccy, they are usually shy and stuff.. but Jasper is just so inquisitive!

I think that goes with the sedentary perch potato rumours.

Dewey is into everything, and of course thinks everything is intended for him.

I paid 25$ for my net and even though it's bigger, it doesn't look any better, great job!

Great job on all of them.
