Hi Ange! There are several sites that sell bird safe pieces so you can make your own toys. Here is one that I found: www.makeyourownbirdtoys.com/Personally, I have found that Pepper and Whisper both like tearing things apart. You can make a very cheap and fun toy using a piece of paper. Cut the paper into slim lines. Then, take a pencil and curl each piece of paper line by wraping the paper around the paper tightly. Take a clothes pin and hang the curled pieces of paper above where they can reach it and tada! Instant fun. I have also seen all of my birds carry small balls with bells inside them around the cage. They are actually "cat toys" and you can get 6 of them for a couple bucks usually. They also like balls that are made of tightly wrapped twigs like these: www.makeyourownbirdtoys.com/Natural-Toy-Parts/2cm-Vine-Ball.htmlAny shredding or colorful toy, my birds seem to like. |

No problem! It's a lot cheaper to make your own toys sometimes and you can tailor to what your birds really like.
