I've been making these in my spare time, and I know it's hard to find plain (white) rope perches and boings. I can also dye the rope any color you'd like (I use food dye, so it's safe).

So, if you're an established member and would like a handmade custom-length rope perch or boing, I'd be happy to help you out.

I have 1/2", 3/4", 1", and 1-1/2" cotton and 3/4" manila rope available, and all metal components are stainless steel.

Below are photos of ones I've previously made







If you're interested, please PM me :)

Re: Handmade bendable rope perches and boings

These are awsome! Where in Oregon are you? And how much are you asking for them?

Between Portland and Salem.


Custom colors are included in the price, or leave them plain white.

I will ship, but you'll have to cover shipping charges.

PM for prices.

Hey that orange one is just like Zilla's! (maybe it is Zilla's) :eek:

I did finally get it in her cage and have seen her on it a few times now. I guess when it didn't bite her head off she decided it was OK!

Thank you so much for making it for her, custom color and all! It's perfect! :D

I will have to get some more things from you after the Holidays :D

I like those! I'll PM you, as I've been looking to get Mr. Kiwi some new rope perches and I've never been fond of the regular ones of many different color threads:)

Re: Handmade bendable rope perches and boings

Wow, Shirre! Your perches and boings look tighter, neater and more professional than the ones in the stores! Most impressive! Any plans to offer them in 1" sizes? (You know those dino-sized ekky feet! Lol!)

Thank you, Stephen! [emoji4]

If I find 1" plain cotton rope, you'll be the first to know! I haven't been able to find it anywhere locally yet- I have a few more places to look, but for now I'll put you on the wait list [emoji41]

Re: Handmade bendable rope perches and boings

Lol Shirre, is that the boing you were working on when you strangled the smurf to death? I love the colors!

Victoria, people are going to get the idea your birds are spoiled.

Re: Handmade bendable rope perches and boings

Speaking of boings, you should let us know when you get the thicker rope in! And we need to get in touch soon about those chunks of wood I need:D
