Sometimes they like the simplest things.

[FONT=&quot]Sometimes they like the simplest things.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]I made a few toys from what I had laying around the house, and purchased a few toys. My Quaker seems to like and play with the ones I made vs the store bought ones like:[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Bottle caps. I strung some bottle water bottle caps and placed them on her perches, and on and in cage, she loves them[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]I cut up some cardboard into different shapes, triangle, rectangle etc... String them up and she loves them.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Used the center cardboard of Paper towels and toilet paper, cut into sections, placed in and on cage around branches and perches, she love them[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Rope, I purchased some Natural Twisted Sisal Rope, and did a lot of things with it. Hung toys with it, wrapped around perches and branches, I left a little of the ends and untwisted them. She loves to play with the ends.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Plastic drinking strews, cut in half ties to the ends of a rope, placed at the bottom of toys, used as toy spacers, etc. she just loved them.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Now I did purchase some plastic chain and did the same with them, and she loved them as well…[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]And Bamboo Finger Traps, and some Rattan Balls that she plays with as we..[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]I guess what I’m saying is that my Quaker is a Parrot, she does not know if you made it or purchased them, but she does let you know which toys she likes the best.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]does it really have to look good to you, or does it have to be appealing to her? I think her.
