The super cute Hippy Hangout is a hanging swing toy that is great for small birds from Budgies to Conures. Your parrot will swing, climb and chew on this fun, safe toy that is handmade by me! The natural (un-coloured) vine rings and colourful beads are threaded onto stainless steel wire, with a mini pacifier hanging from the bottom of each end. The Hippy Hangout measures 28cm tall and 13cm in diameter. It doesn't come with a hanging link, though you can choose to add one of your choice.

Bottom’s Up
This is a very popular foraging toy that is great for the smaller breeds of birds. It is easy to teach your bird to use and can also be made more difficult. Fill it with your bird's favourite treats, and their normal diet, mixed with bird safe foraging substrate. You can use Mini Feather Weight Foot toys, vine balls and other items in this toy as well as treats. The photos show the toy with these items in use. It comes brand new and empty. Your bird will need to lift the light, plastic lid and reach their head into the cup to access their reward. The cups and lids move around freely on a long length of nickel plated chain. While your bird is learning to use the toy, you can sticky tape the lids open or partially open to make it easier for them. Then change to no tape, with the lids sitting loosely once your parrot knows that they can get the food with the lid lifted. You can even start sticky taping the lids closed once your parrot is really good at this toy! They will need to chew through the tape to open the lid! (avian vet recommended/safe). Measures 43cm long (including pear clip and bell) and 6.5cm wide.$32.00or 4 payments of $8.00 with Afterpay
Holy Gumballs
Holy Gumballs! Is a small to medium sized toy with lots of fun things happening! There's so many colours and textures for your bird to explore and so many places you could hide food treats to encourage foraging behaviour too. With lots of rolled paper sticks poking out of the piece of timber in the middle (these are all coloured with food safe dyes), plastic flowers, wiffle balls, a nickel-plated bell and 2 mini 'Feather Weight Stars', Holy Gumballs will satisfy the tactile and visual needs of your bird. To add a foraging component, you can wedge thin treats like hulled oats or slivered almond pieces in the mini Feather Weight Stars, you can put dry treats inside the wiffle ball or stick pieces of paper straws in the holes (the paper straws can have treats inside too!) and you can even wedge pieces of food into the rolled paper sticks for your bird to retrieve. The last 2 photos show examples of this. This toy measures roughly 24cm long (including pear clip and bell) and 17cm wide, it suits most small to medium parrots.$19.70or 4 payments of $4.93 with Afterpay
