New Toy – January
It’s the Helix bird toy from All Bonka Bird Toys. I took the foam parts off (the budgies are such chewers, don’t want them chewing foam) and added a couple vine rings.
Cooper started things off. Then it was Sunny’s turn. She loved it.
Emmy comes closer to see what’s going on.
And closer…
This is a popular toy – there was certainly a lot of squabbling over it. But things calmed down eventually (thank goodness).
New Toy – December
It’s the vine ball Christmas tree from Super Bird Creations.
Cooper investigates.Sunny investigates.
And goes for it.
Felix is shy.
Lera looking sweet.
Emmy was hesitant at first.
But soon got into the destructo spirit.
She’s been working on the tree all day. All the other budgies come and go to give it a nibble, but this is HER toy – so watch out!
Budgie Care Package
Look what arrived in the mail!A package filled with treats and toys for the budgies from my wonderful niece Surena!
Here is Alfie with the disco bell. Alfie loves his bells! This is a favorite of the boys (who love chatting up their reflections in shiny surfaces).
Here is Lera with the hypno wheel. She was playing with it, but every time she saw the camera, she would turn around and pose.
The seed sticks were a big hit as were the dried greens. Above – Cooper. Below – Sunny.
They started squabbling over the sticks, so I put them at the bottom of the cage where they could all snack together.
Here is Alfie again (with the ever present food on his face). Alfie is always first on the scene when food enters the cage.
The budgies loved their gifts! The flock has been a little quiet since Gordie left, so the care package was definitely a welcome surprise. Thank you so much Surena!
XOXO,
the budgies
New Toy – November
New Toy – October
I don’t know the name of this one, but it’s from Paradise Bird Toys.
Cooper decides if it’s worth her time (it was).
I switched out the parts from last month’s (scary) toy. The budgies love it now. Who can resist a mirror and shreddable marshmallows? This one I only put in when I’m there to supervise – I don’t want any budgies to get tangled or stuck.
New Toy – September
It’s the Mini Activity Wall from Super Bird Creations! I like that I can hook on whatever toys I want. I have a lot of leftover parts from old toys that I can clip on it.
Here’s a pic of Sunny not playing with it.
And one of Alfie and Ozzie, who won’t go near it.
Cooper gives her review.
I’m hoping the budgies will work up their courage enough to investigate. Maybe hooking on some marshmallows (birdie kabobs) or millet will entice them. Sigh.
