Bird Toys
Keep Your Bird Happy and Healthy with Bird Toys
If you have a parrot, you'll know that they think everything is a toy, even dixie cups, anything crunchy or shiny. Whether you make or buy your bird toys, the main thing is that they need bird toys to help them stay healthy. Toys can strengthen beak muscles through pulling, tearing, shredding and keep them in mental shape when they attack a bird toy, whether it is a shreddable bird toys, foraging toys, Foot & Beak Toys rope toy, or what have you.
If you do decide to make your bird toys, make sure that they don't contain anything that could be harmful to your pet if ingested. If your pet bird repeatedly attacks something of yours, you can either try to train your parrot to leave it or give it to your bird. Our bird used to repeatedly attack a pair of reading glasses or anything shiny, no matter what we did, she would find them if within site. We finally gave up and gave her, her own pair of reading glasses. She loved it and it actually had to be fixed and replaced a couple of times. Even though she went after the glasses, she left everything else alone after that. If your parrot goes after something that you do not want her to, a great way to train your bird is to simply take the item away and give a verbal correction and then immediately replace the item with an acceptable bird toy. After your pet bird starts playing with the new bird toy give a significant amount of verbal praise. It might take a few tries but most parrots will get the idea pretty quickly, especially if you are consistent.
Purchasing Bird Toys
If you decide to buy your bird toys, you'll find that there are simple toys, such as hanging toys and chew toys, and more complex ones, such as interactive bird toys. bird chew toys are simple, usually made of leather. You'll find that your parrot will usually have a few favorite type of toys, so buy a few in different shapes, sizes, and colors so that they have more to choose from. In general it is worth the extra few dollars to buy a better bird toy than to spend next to nothing on an inferior toy. Cheaply made bird toys will come apart easily and at the very least are a pain to clean up and in a worst case, potentially harmful to you parrot.
Interactive Bird Toys
While simple toys help a bird physically, interactive bird toys can help a parrot mentally. There are toys that allow you to hide a treat within it. Your bird has to move the coverings or figure out a puzzle in order to find the parrot treats. Your pet bird will quickly learn to move cups, blocks, and other coverings in order to get their reward. Both simple and complex parrot toys will keep your parrot healthy and fit both mentally and physically.
Bird Treats
Parrot treats come in handy when training your bird and are also useful in keep their beak healthy. When your parrot obeys you, you'll find that using a treat will help them remember this behavior and will be more likely to repeat it in the future. While you might use treats more often when you are first training your parrot, you can slowly wean them off and instead pet them and play, or company with them as a reward. Even if you use bird treats less during training, they are still valuable for your parrot's health. More and more parrot treats are made with your bird's health in mind.
