I am owned by a wonderfully sweet b/g macaw named Cosmo, an ornery yellow napped Amazon-Roy, 2 bratty dogs-Edison-a pit mix, Chuckles-a pit bull, and 4 mischievous ratties-Siegfried, Roy, Adam and Steve. I enjoy the stories of people's experiences with their fids-and love the photos posted. I am fortunate to have found a group of people dedicated to their birds and animals and wish more people could find such great support for their animals. The question I have is that I bought a cardboard scratching block for cats and thought it would be great as a shredding toy for the two fids-there isn't anything inside-just cardboard-anybody have any thoughts?:ywink:
Thanks so much. ]]> Do It Your Self kongok1 http://www.birdboard.com/forum/do-your-self/943763-shredding-toy.html http://www.birdboard.com/forum/do-your-self/943572-diy-flight-suit-diaper.html Tue, 17 Nov 2009 18:54:03 GMT I saw the "diaperless" version on here, but could not find the diaper version.

Wondering if anyone has made one before and if you would be will to share a template?

I am looking for suggestions on materials to use. Obviously I do not want to make a new cage every few months so I know wood is not a great option. Has anyone made their own cages that could offer some good advice? All suggestions are appreciated. ]]> Do It Your Self jeste http://www.birdboard.com/forum/do-your-self/943539-diy-macaw-cage.html http://www.birdboard.com/forum/do-your-self/943278-brown-paper-bags-safe.html Mon, 16 Nov 2009 07:24:41 GMT That's probably a really silly question since I can't think why they wouldn't be, but I wanted to doublecheck before I gave some to the birds.

I bought some mini brown paper treat bags to make into foraging toys by filling with shredded paper bedding, large beads, and treats. It says they are made of "100% post-consumer recycled paper."
