A collection of foraging and chewing toys that I have selected as suitable for Amazon Parrots. There’s also perching options and other products for Amazons in this section.
Adding Tape Bagel Toy
$24.60Large, thick Birdy Bagels, large vine balls, paper roll and paddle pop sticks (coloured with food safe dye) all hanging on a length of nickel plated chain with a jingly bell. There’s even some shredded crinkly paper inside the vine balls – what is there not to love?! This new bird toy will suit most bird breeds, but is ideal for medium parrots. There’s plenty to chew and explore with a variety of textures.
Measures 35cm tall, 13cm wide and 5cm deep in total and hangs from a nickel plated chain and pear clip.

Birdie Buffet
$30.20The Birdie Buffet is bursting with enrichment for your medium sized bird! Inside the basket you’ll find vibrantly colored iceblock sticks, loofa, raffia tassel, vine twist, and banana leaf rolls. Your bird will relish all these foraging and chewing options! Hanging below the basket is a double string of chunky wooden blocks, mahogany chips, smooth wooden beads, and a palm leaf flower for your bird to twist, pull, climb, and hang on.
The Birdie Buffet is an awesome chewing toy! It has almost a dozen textures & shapes for birds to chew and explore. The raffia tassel is easy to shred, but the pine blocks are more challenging to tear apart. The variety offered by this toy lets birds problem solve and manipulate to their heart’s content!
The whole toy measures 35 x 15cm and hangs from a large plastic ‘c’ link. While this toy is very similar to the popular ‘Foraging Basket’, it’s quite a bit bigger. Cockatiels and smaller birds can safely use this toy, but it may be a bit big and scary for them at first!

Corner Shelf – Powder Coated
$47.00Corner shelves are a great way to utilise space that may be otherwise difficult to make fun! Pop this platform high up in your birds cage as a nice roosting spot or at another level, with foot toys as a play area for your parrot. It can also be handy to place this near to a bolt-on foraging toy to provide access to that level of the cage. Popular with able-bodied and handicapped birds, it provides a nice spot to ‘chill out’.
The bars and sides of the platform are powder-coated. It attaches to the cage with bolts and rectangular ‘washers’ and will fit most cage and aviary bars. See the last 4 photos for an example of the corner shelf set up in a small, travel cage that has horizontal bars on one side and vertical bars on the other. The bolt with the fixed wingnut head screws straight into the hole in the corner shelf, eliminating the need for loose parts on the inside and outside of the cage.
The shelf has a large ‘lip’ on the curved edge. It is pictured with the lip facing downwards, however it can also be positioned the other way, with the lip facing up. This would hold small items like foot toys on the shelf (until your bird throws them over the edge).
I also offer the option of adding a piece of woven seagrass mat onto the platform for a chewable, safe & comfy perching spot for your bird. Replacements can be purchased separately for once the mat gets chewed. I use seagrass mats from Bunnings, that I wash and then soak in F10 veterinary disinfectant. They are thoroughly sun dried then cut to size, using a few small zip ties to stop the cut ends from fraying. The seagrass mat is then attached to the Sundeck with a few more small zip ties.
You can choose to make these seagrass covers yourself, how it’s recommended to wash the mats well before use.
As of 6th December 2018, these have sold out. More stock is due to arrive mid to late December and you can pre-order now to have your order sent as soon as they arrive.

Hide n Seek Refill
$8.30A fun pack of safe, shreddable items for your bird to enjoy! This item replaces the goodies that come with the Hide N Seek toy, but they can be used in any refillable toy, or used in your own creation too! The pack comes with a decent handful of timber cubes in a variety of natural and coloured, 2 x vine balls measuring roughly 3 to 4cm in diameter that are normally natural/uncoloured (but sometimes come coloured) and a lovely mix of raffia rope pieces, which are fantastic for preening.
All coloured items are dyed using bird safe food dyes.
This item does not include the blue Hide N Seek toy/holder.
Hide-a-Treat Forager (2 Sizes)
$18.80 – $28.90A simple foraging toy for parrots, newly released from ‘Sweet Feet & Beak’ in a transparent design. Your bird will see the food inside the 3 separate compartments inside and needs to lift the lid to access the goodies.
Available in 2 sizes to suit a wide variety of breeds. I suggest the small for Cockatiels to Indian Ringnecks and the large for Alexandrines to Macaws. It comes in 3 colours: purple, green and blue. A colour will be chosen at random, though you are welcome to request your colour preferences in order notes. I will do my best to accomodate requests.

You can poke a hole with skewer, wire or scissors and hang it in your birds’ cage. By making small holes in the Yucca and pushing dry food treats into it, you can make this a foraging foot toy also.
As a natural item, the pieces do vary and a fair selection will be chosen for you.

Hanging Buffet Ball (3″) on Kabob
$35.00This toy is perfectly designed for feeding your bird fruits and vegetables. You could also fill with shredded paper, large pellets/nuts and parcels.
Your bird just needs to reach their beak into the slots/openings in this toy to pull out their prize! Wrapping your birds’ chunks of fruit and vegetables will prolong the enjoyment of this toy as your bird chews through the paper to get to their reward. Believe it or not, this toy can actually help to reduce mess and wastage. Every beak-full of food your bird gets out, he has to purposely chew/work for so more often than not, he’s not going to throw it all over your walls! The tray also catches small pieces of food for your bird to come back to later.
The Buffet Ball can be filled whilst on the hanging bar or completely removed and even used separately. All pieces come apart for easy cleaning and changing. The small ball attachment at the bottom is secured onto the pole by the threaded stainless steel inset into the ball. The Buffet Ball and tray of this toy are made from tough polycarbonate with stainless steel hardware to hold up against even the tougher beaks.
The ball measures 9cm in diameter and each of the 12 slots (6 per half) is about 4cm long and 8-12mm wide. The whole toy hangs 37cm tall, including the quick link and the stainless steel skewer measures 8mm thick.The individual 3″ and 5″ foraging balls are also available in my store.
