Ideas for Bird Toys and Enrichments

One of the best things you can do for your bird is provide ample space for exercise and room to play. As every person is an individual, so is every bird. There is no enrichment that is 100% safe, know what is safe for your bird. Great toys get destroyed to oblivion and need to be replaced with new toys as soon as possible. Non-destructable toys need to be rotated regularly, with the exception of a bird's favorite toy. Use these ideas for a starting point and make them work for your bird and your particular setup.
