May 13, 200916 yr Author I just put some of these swings in the kindie cage. Took all of a few seconds and they are occupied
May 13, 200916 yr Author good idea kaz I also hung some swings in the breeder cages where Dads looked bored while their hens sit on eggs
December 18, 200915 yr Love these swings. I have some in the flight, and i am about to put the new perches you made in the flights as well =D
May 21, 201015 yr Liv has linked some of her swings together too wow, swings look great. I might have a go. Is it okay to use wooden beads (coloured ones)?
May 21, 201015 yr Author Liv has linked some of her swings together too wow, swings look great. I might have a go. Is it okay to use wooden beads (coloured ones)? Depends what has coloured the wooden beads...are they safe dyes etc ? and budgies chew wood. At least with the coloured plastic ones there is no dyes or paint to come away. Those pony beads are easily found in the $2 shops. The plastic makes for easy cleaning too.

I'd like to make some for my budgies. They have 1 plain one at the moment and there is always someone on it. Thanks for your advice.

July 8, 201015 yr okay i finally got around to making that swing!! here it is ... and dont worry the wood beads are non toxic, the packet said so it took a while for them to want to try it out though. but for some reason mortimer doesnt like swings he never never goes on them ... i think maybe it is because alfalfa thinks she is queen of the swing and wont let him on

August 30, 201014 yr Author A beautiful hen from our Nubbly..........loving her swing in her quarantine cage Hasnt barely got off the swing since she got here. If a budgie could GRIN she is :laughter:
August 30, 201014 yr That has given me an idea. I have made a dozen or so of these swings, I'm going to put one in my quarantine cages. :laughter:
September 6, 201014 yr Author I have put a few in my breeder cages to keep the cocks busy while the hens incubate, and of course a few in the kindie cage too.
November 1, 201014 yr thats a great idea KAZ, ill try and make some, however my avairy is sheet metal top so i cant hook it from there, i am a bit hesitant to drill a hole incase the noise freaks them out, does any one have any ideas on how els to hang it?
