Kiwi got his new toys today and he has tuckered himself out playing. It was a very mentally stimulating day for such a little guy!

This ball was A LOT larger than I was expecting, so I wasn't sure what to put in it food-wise, so I ended up filling it with toys unseated and anchoring it to the cage so he could roll it, but not knock it off

And what are YOU still doing here, I wanna play!

Takes human 20 minutes to figure out how to get cones on the "track" of foraging toy (they slide around). Takes parrot under a minute to figure out how to get them out.

I love how you have the foraging ball anchored on the shelf. It can roll and move around but won't fall off.

That Kiwi is SO smart! :D

Lol looks like Kiwi is enjoying his new stuff! The heart toy is amazing it also took me a few minutes to figure out how to load it and I remember thinking wow this may take Jillie a while to get. In less than 15 mins she had the treats out and eaten!
That grass mat looks huge, I didn't think it was that big I may have to get a few of those!

Thats a great deal! I bet your birds will love them, and since you have such a big flock, these will be easy to assemble and everyone gets a really big toy:) You'll have to post pics when your done.

Kiwi just seems to want the cones to play with out of the heart forager:20: The space circles one he is really loving. I'm just waiting to see him hanging off it by one foot upside down or something lol.

Ha Ha I might post pics I am sure my toy making doesn't compare to your mad skills in that department but I should be able to come up with something they will enjoy tearing apart!:D

Wow! Is Kiwi actually able to remove the cones? Jillie hasn't managed that.

Yup. He immediately figured out how to remove them and get the treat out that way:rolleyes: And once he had them, he played with them and took them up to the top of his cage and flung them. It's really hard to locate small, clear plastic cones on the floor:52:

And I would like to see your toys! I bet you are much better at making them then you think;)

Busted in the act (and he gobbled down the blueberry in the cone right before I took the photos):

"You mean I wasn't suppose to take the cone out to get the treat?"

Julie- Is that not the look of naughtiness right there?

Mango- They sell these mats at mysafebirdstore.com and I think Labell said they are having a sale on them today! The mats do not come with anything on them though, so your mom and dad would have to tie beads and toys to them for you to play with;)
