I was using old carbon paper order forms my mom used for sales around where my budgie was playing. I noticed she was chewing and ripping it apart, and did pay much attention to it. I realized a few mins ago, what is was, and quickly put her back into her cage. She Has been playing with this paper for 5+ hours today, and I was wondering is this paper safe for budgies? If not, what can I use as a paper substitute so she doesn't leave droppings on the table cloth? I do live in Canada in case there is difference between paper made in Canada and Australia.

Edit: the paper that is used is the type someone would use if they sold Tupperware or any thing that has the same business model.

I researched for some information on Carbon paper and found out that it is safe.

Hi Have you tried a cheap plastic tablecloth. Use it when the bird is out & any mess can be removed with a damp cloth.

 

Yours B.J.

switched to a old towel, and ended up cutting it in half. The only reason I used them in the first place was because my mom sells Epicure Spices and had a bunch of old order forms. Now i know it is safe, I have a bunch of shredding toys i didn't have to make .
