    Toys for a conure...suggestions?

    Hello! We recently adopted a 13-year old black capped conure. She is really wonderful and almost potty trained, so thank you to her previous family for that! She's very active and inquisitive but so far is unimpressed by bird toys. We've got three in her cage right now and she avoids them. She...
