Maybe I'll try blending it sometime. I do like letting them have the whole kernels of corn and whole little round peas. They all look very, very cute with a pea dangling from their lips, er beaks. Mistletoe's beak always has mushed-up peas smooshed all around it.

I have that same comfy perch that Luvs has. I love how Diana's dangles though, so her birds can swing on it. Yesterday I took mine down and tied it back up such that it now swings. I'm eager to see my birds discover the difference.

No yet. I used to have it curled into a boing shape and screwed from the top of the cage. It didn't swing. I noticed that Diana's has a clamp hook that suspends it just a little from the top of the cage. I laced some doubled-over yarn through the top screw of mine and tied it from the top of my cage so it now swings. Nobody has stepped toe or claw onto it since. They really are little turkeys, my feather babies.

"Nobody has stepped toe or claw onto it since. "
Oh, how sad :-(. My budgies are always jumping on and off their boings.
However, I went to great lengths to get my budgies the Penguin on Wheels toy. They never touch it. It's very sad.

I may need to just rearrange things around a bit. I dangled the boing quite a distance from the top, and my birds do like their highest perches and swings and stuff best. I'll get it figured out. I believe they will go back to liking it, because they liked it before, when it was stationary and positioned at the top. My problem is kind of a good problem to have. I have a lot of great things in my cage. I want my birdies to enjoy it all. What I really need to do is pull a few things out, wash them, and tuck them away for rotation. I know it's the best way, and healthy for cage birds to get their toys changed up regularly, but oh, it's hard to take out something really great! Woohoo! It worked! I moved the boing up, and not five minutes later, Kringle & December got on it.

I try to suspend some toys such that they will hang down lower so the bottom half of my flight cage won't be wasted. Seems the only way I can get my birds to care about the lower half is to place their food low in the cage. I may go back to that because then they bounce up and down and all around their cage, and none of that wonderful space is wasted.
