I bought a plastic toy for my birds today which is basically just a few rings linked together with a little plastic bell on the end...I hung it from the top of their cage so they can play with it from different perches. They love it and have been going crazy over it since I put it in. I just wanted to check and make sure these are safe though...? I noticed Sy poking her head through one of the rings as if she was going to try to squeeze her whole body through..but on realising she's too big, she just backed out again..anyhow, can someone let me know if these things are okay??

 

Thanks! :D

I'm interested in what answer you get, my cockatiel has the same toy!

Thanks for your post, I was beginning to think I was the only one left on here tonight! :D:D

thanks for the replies! I'm relieved to hear they're okay considering my girls love them so much! It's pretty funny watching them play with it..Sy get's very excited and even swings on it..Cilla, as always, has a more calm approach...poor little darling tries her best to get some time with the new toy, and Sy comes along and snaps at her to go away so she can have it all to herself!! Cheeky!

Another simple easy budgie toy is to put bright coloured plastic bracelets over the perch and they play with them and sit in them.

I too have many of these ring toys. I don't think I've really had a problem with any of them. The only time I saw any concern was when two keets were trying to climb at the same time. I was afraid their toes would get pinched between the rings, but it hasn't happened yet. I think you'll be okay with them... mine love them.

I bought one of those for my budgies too, they love it!!! My hen has managed to break one of the rings though, she's so rough with her toys! She sits on top of the cage and unhooks the toys from the roof :P hence breaking many of them, including my other budgie's all-time favourite toy (he was heartbroken!)

Cosmo is in love with his (especially the bell part). He actually can climb through the rings though, and he does flips through it.

I also have one of the loop-ring toys for my budgie, and over 2 years - nothing has ever happened.
