Toys
The Hol-ee Roller Ball is made from strong rubber, There are dozens of hexagonal shaped holes cut into the rubber, where you can push treats for your bird to remove. A bell is already hidden inside too for added fun.
The Fruit Holder is a useful toy for Parrots still getting to grips with foraging. It holds fruit, vegetables, treats and toy parts and then locks onto your Parrot’s cage using a clip fastening so your bird can quickly forage for their goodies.
It also means food stays clean and is always available for your Parrot to access.
The Treasure Hunt Toy is transparent so that your bird can see their goodies hidden inside. There are holes cut into the chest, so your Parrot can touch their prize, although removing them will be difficult. A refill of this toy is also available.
Noise-Making Toys
The Birdy Babble Ball is a fun way for your Parrot to learn to say short words and phrases like “meow” and “squeak.” The wide array of sounds keeps your bird interested in the toy, and hearing the sound repeated regularly enough helps teach them to talk.
Parrots activate the sounds by knocking the ball over with their feet or beak. The ball is strong so withstands even destructive playtimes. The toy stops speaking automatically when your bird ceases playing with it.
The Double Ringer Parrot Bell comes in a small or large size. It has a durable casing that’s easy to clean, so that the bell stays inside and chimes merrily away for a long time. Your Parrot can hold the bell using the D shaped handle or you can attach more materials to it for your bird to play with.
Activity and Trick Toys
The Birdie Basket Ball Toy exercises your bird physically and mentally. It has been created especially for small Parrots. Littler birds can shoot hoops all day long, and as the basket ball is attached to a chain, it won’t bounce too far. It captures your Parrot’s attention immediately thanks to the shiny mirrored backboard.
However it’s also a fun toy for your Parrot to hang and swing from, and there’s room to attach more materials or refill the body of the toy with goodies for your bird to play with.
Shreddable Toys
The Shred It Toy is perfect if your Parrot has mastered all other shreddable toys, or perhaps begun shredding things you don’t want them too.
he toy only has one small slit, to allow a thin shred of paper roll to get through. Your Parrot needs to learn how to pull the paper roll out before they can shred it. Your bird can grip the toy using the holes at each end, which has the added advantage of stopping the Shred It spinning.
The refill pack fastens on at one end of the cylinder.
Paper Roll Refills for Shreddable Parrot Toys quickly attach to shreddable toys using rope or chain or you can build their own unique toy from them. The rolls are unbleached to make them safe for your Parrot.
Foraging Toys
The Nutcase Rubber Foraging Toy resembles a large peanut and has holes cut into it where your Parrot’s favourite treats can be pushed through.
The JW Tumble Bell makes plenty of noise as it rotates, something noise loving Parrots adore. Birds can grip and make the toy rotate by themselves. For added foraging fun add treats inside the spinning barrel for your bird to find.
Food
Millet Sprays come pre-packed in packs of threes. It can be hung up in your Parrot’s cage or just woven through the cage bars. Millet is an excellent source of silica that supports your bird’s immune system, phosphorus, which releases energy from fats, carbohydrates and proteins, and magnesium that helps enzymes transport nutrients.
Walter Harrison’s Premium Parrot Mix is the only diet recommended by the National Parrot Sanctuary. It is a complete diet, so your bird gets all the protein, carbohydrate, fat, vitamin and mineral requirements they require every day.
Some of the beak-wateringly good ingredients include pineapple, beetroot and raisins.
Perches
The Mineral Forked Perch for Parrots comes in two sizes, small and medium. It has massaging effects which keeps your bird’s nails healthy and trim, just like chewing and walking across tree bark would do in the wild.
The whole perch is made from discarded shells, making it fully sustainable and good for the environment. Shells contain calcium, which helps your Parrot build strong bones.
The Beach Branch Perch comes in three sizes, small, medium and large. It is a good alternative to chewing on wood perches yet still keeps your Parrot’s beak and nails trim. The perch is made from ground seashells and minerals.
There is also an Edible Branch.
A Manzanita Flat Parrot Perch comes in a small or large size. The flat surface gives your Parrot’s feet a work out and stops any sores developing.

Having a set of avian scales is very important, because as Parrots are natural prey animals, they don’t like to show any outward signs of illness. Increases and decreases in their weight could be the first indicator of illness.

DVD’s
