I've elected to force my bird to forage for his food minus the fresh veggies I feed him. Reason being is that birds are forced to forage in the wild and this prevents the birds from picking up bad behaviorals. I was just wondering what are your favorite foraging toys. I have this toy: [ame=http://www.amazon.com/Creative-Foraging-Systems-6-Inch-Diameter/dp/B001N2TG22/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1436195479&sr=8-1&keywords=parrot+food+wheel]Amazon.com : Creative Foraging Systems Foraging Wheel, 6-Inch Diameter : Pet Toys : Pet Supplies[/ame]. Duke was able to figure it out and I put his pellets in there right above his food bowl.. And on top of that. I bought one of these: [ame="http://www.amazon.com/JW-Pet-Company-Insight-Assorted/dp/B00CIBFWNY/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1436195914&sr=8-3&keywords=parrot+bell"]Amazon.com : JW Pet Company Insight Hol-ee Roller Large Bird Toy Assorted Colors "Sale JW Pet Company - Medium Toys" : Pet Supplies[/ame]. Which I found to be perfect for his nutriberries.

I'm just curious what else you guys use this way I can change things up from time to time to keep Duke busy.

I was considering buying that one.

I've started to hide food in his rope toys and stuff now and he seems to be keeping himself busy trying to get to the food.

Be aware! Once they know how to open the barrel, It'll take them just a few seconds to open it again :p

This happened to me! I got one of the ones where the bird needs to pull out the sliding panels to get the treat. Lasted 20mins, and now consecutive uses about 2 seconds lol. I ended up with a 5 compartment wheel, I find that is lasting much longer and I can jazz it up in different ways :)
