Hey everyone, I adopted my 2 month old GCC Kiwi, a couple weeks ago, and he's doing pretty good. The first few days having him all he wanted was cuddles and food, he would slowly warm up to us (he was always friendly to us, I'm just noticing that he trusts us more and more and gets excited when...
Hi guys!
I have been trying to get creative and find new ways to create toys and keep my fids entertained and engaged during their play time. I have been working with them and making foraging toys so that have something to get their little destructive spurts of energy out on something that is...
Okay so I've been looking at some new toys and stuff for a budgie and was wondering if these coconut cove things are safe for them I saw some things ab the rope not being good if they chew on it and if anyone has it do you like it??

So the little ones (my Kakariki, Cleo :green1: and Turquoisine, Merlin:green:) were actually really enjoying their swing today. I haven't really seen them use it. But so at one point Merlin jumped...
Many of us desire to make our own perches out of trees growing nearby, but the question of what is safe and what is not is always an issue. Pine is safe, but only when cured. Cured means the pitch has been removed. Pine pitch contains turpentine, a somewhat toxic substance used to remove oil...
