Cockatiels toys setup

[Hamdiayadi]

Hello , I have two cocktiels one male and one female, I couldn't setup some toys before because my country doesn't have , now I travelled to France and plan to bring many toys , useful perches , food plates , stands ect ... Anything that can make them enjoy , any recommendations please on what to buy ? I need to make sure the toys I buy are safe and they don't end up hurting them , and need suggestions in some of the stands that could be setup outside , thank you !

Ladders and skewers can be helpful! Also, wood blocks. You can use the skewers to hang paper towel rolls and paper for foraging toys. Wood blocks can be destroyed, so you might want to get lots.

Other people might have more ideas. Good luck!

Thank you for the reply, is there any photos of those toys that I need to make sure to buy?

Gimmie a sec to find some things on Amazon .

A skewer is a long piece of metal and a piece you can screw on at the top or bottom. They're very good multipurpose tools I stick a small box on them and fill it with paper and treats. It's an easy foraging toy .

Ladders are also easy to find. You can find them in all kinds of sizes.

Then there's the paper rolls. Most paper rolls you can get from an office supply store. If you want to save money, you can take the center out of a paper towel roll and cut it up

If you have any more questions, feel free to ask! .

Wooden bamboo skewers that are used for kabobs make great make shift toys. Thread bite size fruit, veggies or toys and position for out of cage time. These are cheap and replaceable.

Thanks for the suggestions, I couldn't found stores that sell toys so I was planning to buy from temu , I found those options as attached below , are there any risk to the birds with these toys? Can the material be toxic and pose a risk to the birds ?

Look around at different on line birdie specific toy store. Look at things you an put together and easily replace. A bit time consuming. But you can add a bit of variety at lower cost. Pay attention to what your bird likes. I enjoy looking and planning what to get next. Be sure to get 'easy to destroy toys'. Birds enjoy shredding things. Some more then others. I don't know if you know this. Avoid parts, pine cones etc from craft store or toy stores. These can have dyes, pesticide etc that aren't bird safe. They can look nearly identical. Enjoy your friend.
