A collection of foraging and chewing toys that I have selected as suitable for Eclectus Parrots. There’s also perching options and other products for Eclectus in this section.
Natural 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
Jungle Vine Sisal Perch 64 x 2.5cm
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 2.5cm rope diameter is suitable for most parrot species, though it's best suited to medium parrots. 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. 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.$22.00or 4 payments of $5.50 with Afterpay

Corner Shelf – Powder Coated
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
Foraging Dish Starter Pack
A large rectangular plastic dish with metal hooks to attach to the bars of the cage. This is a large dish that makes a great foraging tray and is great for birds that don't like to be down low/on the ground of their cage. It comes with a 500g pack of bird safe foraging substrate to get you started. Please introduce the concept of foraging for food gradually to your birds. Feel free to contact me to discuss if you need assistance with this. The rectangular dish measures 23cm wide, 12.5cm deep and is 7cm tall, it is suitable for most breeds of parrot, but particularly small and medium birds. The hook on attachment suits most cage bars.$11.30Hide-a-Treat Forager (2 Sizes)
A simple foraging toy for parrots, 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 transparent 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 accommodate requests.$19.90 – $30.70or 4 payments from $4.98 with Afterpay

Believe it or not, this toy can actually help to reduce mess and wastage.
