Seed Catchers

[Guest Caren]

I need 3 large ones, and 4 small ones, the budgies and tiels are making a mess! Does anyone know where I can get some cheap ones?

[Guest Lin]

try ebay, and I have a large one you can have, if you pm me your address I will post it to you. When you get it, you'll see how easy it is to make your own.

I have a tip to reduce the amount of seed that gets on the floor. If you place the seed cups right down the bottom (where the wire ends and plastic starts if you know what i mean) then they can't spill the seed everywhere. Also if you measure the seed instead of filling the cup to the top even if they jump in the seed dish not too much seed should escape. There's never ANY seed anywhere around Blinkie's cage.

I don't fill the seed cups to the top. I have at least 5 budgies who think they've got to land in the bowl to start eating.

I also have a disabled budgie with one leg who finds landing on perches a not so easy task. For him, the bowl's half filled with seed and 3/4 filled with alfalfa, which gives a soft landing and is edible!

the dirt devil is your friend (when i remember to charge it!)

[Guest Caren]

Yes, and until my vacuum cleaner's fixed, I have to sweep the carpet, so much fun!

I would leave them out, but the porch roof leaks, and it's just all over cold out there!

Sweeping carpet?? Wouldn't that just grind the seed deeper into it and make it harder to get out?
