A collection of foraging and chewing toys that I have selected as suitable for Caique Parrots. There’s also perching options and other products for Caiques in this section.
Natural 2cm Vine Balls (each)
Vine Balls are a great, versatile item. They can be used as a chewable foot toy, put food inside and use it within a foraging toy or even on its' own as a foraging foot toy! Lastly, they make a great toy part as you can thread them onto wire, chain or rope as part of a toy. Each vine ball is made from wound grape vine and is roughly 2cm in diameter, but do vary as they are natural products. Larger vine balls are also available in my store.$0.50Natural 4cm Vine Balls (each)
Vine Balls are a great, versatile item. They can be used as a chewable foot toy, put food inside and use it within a foraging toy or even on its' own as a foraging foot toy! Lastly, they make a great toy part as you can thread them onto wire, chain or rope as part of a toy. Each vine ball is made from wound grape vine and is roughly 4cm in diameter, but do vary as they are natural products. Other vine ball sizes as well as coloured vine balls are also available in my store.$1.20Multi Crunch
The Multi-Crunch is great chewing and preening toy that can be used for foraging too! It has 9 safe, crunchy vine balls and pine pieces, hanging from vegetable tanned leather, underneath a reed bowl. By separating gaps in the vine balls to hide dry food treats like nuts, large pellets and paper-wrapped goodies for your bird to work for, it becomes a fun foraging toy. You can pull the gaps in the vine closed before giving it to your bird. Your parrot will delight in crunching up the vine to reach their treat. The toy measures 10cm wide and 28cm tall, hanging from a nickel plated pear clip.$27.20or 4 payments of $6.80 with Afterpay
Bermuda Vine Ball Toy (PT715)
The Bermuda is an amazing 'all-rounder' toy! It is colourful, has lots of safe, crunchy vine and can be used as a foraging toy when you hide dry food treats like nuts, large pellets and paper-wrapped goodies inside the many vine balls for your bird to work for. Your parrot will delight in crunching up the vine to reach their treat and the chains of vine rings that hang around the toy are fun to shake and play with. The body of the toy measures 13 x 13cm and hangs a total of 38cm tall on the vegetable tanned leather and pear clip.This toy is actually one of the reasons I started stocking other toys apart from the naturals that I hand-make. I used to buy 12 at a time from America for my own birds and started supplying them to friends with birds when they saw how great they were. This prompted me to make a business account and start stocking them, so they are a part of the business' history!$27.20or 4 payments of $6.80 with Afterpay
Adding Tape Bagel Toy
Large, 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.$24.60or 4 payments of $6.15 with Afterpay
Superbird Basket Case
This is a great, chewable toy that will help to keep your parrot amused. With lots of colourful crinkly paper trapped within 2 cane baskets, what's not to love! There's a coloured vine star tied to either side of the toy with seagrass rope and a dingly bell at the bottom. The toy can be opened (by removing a few plastic c links) for your birds' treats or beads to be hidden inside and to refill it with crinkly paper. The toy measures 28cm long, 13cm wide and 17cm deep. It hangs from nickel plated pear clip. The Basket Case has been a long time favourite here. In July 2018 it has had a slight update. The overall design and price are the same, however the basket has changed its' looks just a little. The new item is pictured. The old basket was plain in colour.$18.00or 4 payments of $4.50 with Afterpay
Jungle Vine Sisal Perch 50 x 2cm
The Jungle Vine Sisal Perch, by Polly's Pet Products is made with sisal rope, that is much safer for your parrot than cotton rope items. This quality product can be attached horizontally, vertically or diagonally to suit your birds' cage and play style. While this item does not have wire inside to be able to create crazy shapes, you can manipulate it and attach it to your birds' cage bars in a position that suits. The 2cm rope diameter is suitable for small parrot species. It attaches to the cage at each end with a bolt and wing nut set, with large (5cm) diameter washers in between. It will fit most cage and aviary bars. The rope section of this perch is 42cm long and it is attached into pvc pipe parts, with a total length of 50cm. While sisal rope is significantly safer than cotton and synthetic fibres, it is still important to monitor your bird with any new toy to ensure they are using it correctly and not chewing it excessively. Sisal rope that is accidentally consumed in small amounts (through normal chewing and preening) will break down and digest, however if large amounts are consumed in a short time, it still has the potential to cause a blockage.Due to the packaging rubbing during shipping from America, I will normally remove the product tags, which are zip tied onto the perch and can be hard to remove without risking cutting the perch if just using household scissors. Additional photos show this perch compared to the larger size. Check out my store for the larger size. The manufacturer doesn't currently make this smaller rope diameter in a longer perch, I have requested this and will see what the bring us in the future.$19.90or 4 payments of $4.98 with Afterpay

It attaches to the cage at each end with a bolt and wing nut set, with large (5cm) diameter washers in between. It will fit most cage and aviary bars. The rope section of this perch is 55cm long and it is attached into pvc pipe parts, with a total length of 64cm.Due to the packaging rubbing during shipping from America, I will normally remove the product tags, which are zip tied onto the perch and can be hard to remove without risking cutting the perch if just using household scissors. The first photo shows the actual perch size advertised, while the additional photos show this perch compared to the smaller size as well as my own Corella, Precious on her perch of this size. Check out my store for the smaller size. Larger sizes likely to come soon.

Balsa Heaven
Balsa is a very soft timber that is satisfying to chew and is a favourite for many small parrots. I made this toy as a birthday present for Larry the female Cockatiel, who is owned by one of my wonderful customers. She is pictured with her toy and has chosen to name it 'Balsa Heaven'. This toy incorporates long, thin slats of balsa, with some colourful beads and a small pacifier at the bottom, all threaded onto stainless steel wire. A loop is made at the top of the toy to attach a hanging link to. The toy measures roughly 17cm tall and 15cm wide and the balsa can be fanned out or laid flat depending on your cage set up. Fantastic for Budgies, Lovebirds, Cockatiels, Conures and Quakers.$14.50Medium Natural Swing
This natural swing is made to suit small to medium parrots. An individual or pair of Cockatiels, Conures, Quakers, Lorikeets or Caiques could comfortably use this swing, or an individual Indian Ringneck, Alexandrine or Mini Macaw. One of the most popular of the original "Kirsty's Natural Bird Toys", this toy is handmade and has a natural branch perch that is 20-25cm wide, with lots of bark for your parrots' feet and nails. Lining the side is a seasonal mix of Australian Gumnuts, Casuarina and Liquid Amber pods plus native branch pieces, balsa bricks, vine balls/rings, birdy bagels, yucca pieces, woven leaf shredding strips and finger trap pieces, threaded onto stainless steel wire. Even the occasional small Pinecone or Banksia cone is added to one of these swings. It hangs from a short length of stainless steel chain and small 'O' ring to attach a hanging link to. I also make these in small, large and extra large to suit a wide range of bird breeds. These natural toys are handmade and the seed pods are seasonally available. Therefore, every toy does differ and contains a mix of dry/open and green/closed seed pods. Please contact me before purchase if you have specific wishes or want to check availability of certain seed pods.$19.00or 4 payments of $4.75 with Afterpay

Corner 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, however it's recommended to wash the mats well before use.$53.00or 4 payments of $13.25 with Afterpay
