Hi, I'm new at making bird toys and I need help. I have some old toys that I want to make into new ones and I want to make some new toys as well for my 2 Sun conures but I'm not sure what kind of rope or wood or chain or beads to get.

Could you help me by giving your advice with the links below????

I am not sure what you are looking for. Are you asking if these parts are good to use or how to make toys out of them?

There are many places to get parts from but here is one, they have good stuff and good prices. I order from them and make many toys for my Cockatiels and sell swings and stuff locally as well. Any way check these out. there are many out there so...be happy.

I have found this site to be awsome for rope and toy parts, they sell coconut rope, 100% cotton rope, poly rope, palm rope and a ton of toy parts at ebay prices and they also have free shipping on orders over $25.00.

I have found the poly rope to be really good and easy to work with for toys for my Sun, and the coconut rope to stand up to my Macaws.

The site is cheap bird toys, bird toys, small bird toys, parrot toys, birdie bagels, wholesale bird toy parts, macaw bird toys.

Good luck and I make all my "clan" there toys, so if you need extra help just let me know.
