Australian Native Banksia Seed Pods are great enrichment for parrots, who love chewing at these natural delights. Fresh pods contain healthy, tasty seeds for your bird and you can hide small dried treats inside the openings of the dry pods for a foraging surprise (millet works perfectly).

Each Banksia pod is a provided by nature and therefore vary in size, colour and appearance. I scrub these seed pods by hand and clean them in bird-safe veterinary disinfectant (F10) before drying in the sun and sending. Loose Banksia Pods make great foot toys for larger parrots, they can be placed in a Foraging Tray or foraging holder (eg Baffle Cage or Hide n Seek). You can select to have a hole drilled in the side of the pod, allowing you to thread onto Stainless Steel Wire to make your own bird toys.

Be sure to check out the Fresh Gumnuts, which compliment the Banksia Pods well.
