When I got this bird she was cage bound, and hadn't been outside the cage in two years. ALL toys terrified her... to the point of recoiling in horror and going into a full on panic attack at the sight of them...
NEEDLESS TO SAY SHE'S CURED!
She hasn't been INSIDE the cage in around a decade... she lives out on a playstand.
I actually had to teach her to play with toys. Sitting her down on my lap and introducing them to her slowly over time...
NOW, OF COURSE, I GET OUT THE TOY MAKING SUPPLIES, AND IT'S LIKE, IS THAT FOR ME?! GIMME IT!
