Talking Some toys we made yesterday







My fave is the pink/blue swing. I guess the cockatiels or parrotlets will enjoy that one since we made it small. We're workin on making a big macaw swing from branches out of our yard and some big wooden blocks. Maybe it'll turn out half decent. =)

Looking good!

Two concerns that stand out to me. In picture number two the safety pins used could possibly be opened by the bird and as a result cause damage.

In picture number two, right side, bottom of the heart, if the bird for whatever reason put there head into that it looks as if they could get stuck, similar to the bar spacing rule.

Just thought I would point out my concerns... Otherwise it looks great!

The safety pins are actually plastic and were ordered from cali bird nerds.com. I will keep an eye out for the heart one as well. Thank you! =)
