Posted December 27, 200915 yr Hi, i recently made a diy bird play gym/stand and have used zinc plated nails to hold the wood together. I know the zinc is posionous so im wondering if covering it with vet wrap would prevent the bird from ingesting some of the zinc. Also, has any one used "3m Micropore" instead of vet wrap? is okay for birds? Happy New yr :emoticon112:
December 27, 200915 yr Use a nail punch, punch the nails in deeper and cover the minor indent with some wood putty...wait till it sets and all good to go :emoticon112:
December 27, 200915 yr Thanks Kaz, is there a specific wood putty i should use? I think the one you get in small tubs at the hardware store is called SPECIAL PUTTY....might come in tubes also. Read ingredients before buying.
