- Marzipan (Hahns Macaw) & Pip & Monte ('tiels) // In Memory: Countess ('tiel), Primrose (GCC), Pauly, Star, Yoshi & Keitaro (budgies)
While I was waiting for Prim to arrive in November, I kept myself busy making her toys, a playpen, and her happy hut. The great thing about fleece is that you can cut it in all kinds of ways and it won't shred, it's also washable.
I used a method to make her hut that I do with fleece pillows, cut notches in the fleece and tie it together! What I did to make this one was take a small box (or use half a cereal box), cut two pieces of fleece that were roughly 1-2 inches bigger than the cardboard, then notched the 1-2 inches and tied around the box. Then I used a couple ropes of felt I made to attach it to the top of the cage.
At first she didn't know how to use it! She would sleep hanging off the side of it! But last month she began to use it and now she sleeps there diligently! IT's so cute when she pops her head out!
Hope this is useful for fellow bird owners!
