Toy Challenges

Starbird SpinaRoo Foraging Block
Starbird Toys has a great new foraging challenge for our parrots.  It's called a SpinaRoo.  Chauncey, my master puzzle solver, took one day to figure it out.

But I swiveled the blocks slightly to allow him to see the food treats inserted inside.  Tomorrow, I will close it up and see how long it will take him to discover his pistachio nuts.  This toy comes in two sizes.  The one seen here is the large version.  I highly recommend this toy.  http://www.estarbird.com/products/SpinaRoo.html


Lulli Guzzles His Bottle
 Of course, one can use just about any container to create a foraging toy!  See Lulli here?  He loves to guzzle a pine nut out of a bottle.  He is fast as lightning.  The bottles end up on the floor of the cage...making the SpinaRoo a better choice!

Challenging our birds to find their food treats is so important.
