Parrot Toys

Note: I do not generally recommend buying toys on Amazon because toys made overseas with only profit in mind may use unsafe materials, like toxic paint. Even the the best-made toys can be dangerous in the wrong circumstances. Keep an eye on how your bird uses toys. Remove long/loose chains, loose threads/toys made from fabric that your bird is chewing or consuming, and anything your bird could get stuck in (budgie millet holders and chewed up rattan balls come to mind). Snuggle huts belong in one place-- the trash!
