Homemade Toys

[Mallory]

I'm recovering from some surgery (nothing major) and I'm supposed to be resting. Unfortunately it's day four and I am SICK of resting. It's hard to keep me from being busy so I got out all my parrot toy parts and made a bunch of toys. Here are pics of some of the foot toys, if you guys enjoy them maybe I'll post some of the hanging toys. I buy a lot of my toy parts from My Safe Bird Store, A Bird Toy and Noah's Ark and Novelty, and I do use some recycled parts from around the house or from old toys.

Eva's favorite foot toys. These are super simple and keep her entertained a long time - Koda also likes flinging these around.

Spoons and forks from the baby aisle. These can hang or be used as foot toys.

Random toys. Eva really likes to play with the caps from water bottles so I started making toys using them.

Some Greenleaf-sized toys. Ignore the ear plug in the corner That snuck into the pic.

Really sweet!

Nice! I especially like the baby spoon and fork ones.

Raven's favorite thing to do with foot toys is play with them for 10 seconds then drop them all over the floor for me to clean up. But of course!

Great toys, I bet your birds love them, very creative ideas! I hope you fully recover from your surgery very soon.

Thanks for the pics / ideas! Sucre is so destructive, I need to work on some of these to just keep available as replacements.

Right now, the favorite toy is a large choke collar for a dog attached to the top of the cage. Makes such a nice noise when it's pulled non stop for an hour or so!

BUT...It's better than screeching from boredom! I also found some of the supposedly indestructible dog rope toys that Sucre really likes.
