Please remove that hut immediately. Snuggle huts are a point of hot debate anyway, as they, along with rope perches and all other cloth like cage accessories, can be extremely dangerous when chewed. There are two main dangers; first, when chewed the strings can end up tangling around toes, etc and causing serious injury in a matter of seconds, even if the human is in the same room and rushes over right away. Second, the bird can actually swallow the fibers and build up a major digestive blockage which can kill your bird before you notice anything is wrong.
In general, while many of us choose not to use them at all because of these dangers as well as the hormonal triggers, those owners who do use them need to be extremely diligent in removing and replacing the huts as soon as they begin to look chewed.
