Bottom’s Up

$36.50 (inc GST)

The Bottom’s Up is the most popular foraging toy in the range. Maybe because it is so great for smaller breeds of birds and for introducing the concept of foraging. 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.

Your bird will need to lift the light, plastic lid of the Bottoms Up toy 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).

To ‘mix things up’, 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, which can be purchased separately.

The whole toy measures 43cm long (including pear clip and bell) and 6.5cm wide. All hardware is nickel plated, though I can upgrade it to stainless steel hardware with the parts that I sell. There are now multiple options to select from if you’d like the hardware upgraded.

    Great entry level foraging toy for a beginner forager. All my birds love it and seem to enjoy eating from this and it keeps them occupied for quite sometime.
