Hanging Wood Blocks Bird Toy on Nylon Rope for Large Parrots (BLT021)

Hanging Wood Blocks Bird Toy on Nylon Rope for Large Parrots

This hanging bird toy strings chunky, brightly coloured wooden blocks along a strong nylon rope, finished with a bell at the base, giving large parrots plenty to chew, climb and play with. Measuring around 40 x 15cm, it is a good-sized toy built to stand up to a determined beak while keeping your bird entertained for hours.

The bright colours are there to grab a parrot's attention quickly, and the varied blocks give beaks something worthwhile to work on. Chewing and foraging are natural, important behaviours for parrots, and a toy that gives them a proper outlet helps keep birds mentally stimulated and busy, which in turn cuts down on the boredom that leads to feather plucking, screaming and chewing things you'd rather they left alone. In other words, it channels all that chewing energy into the toy instead of your furniture.

It is designed for medium to large parrots such as macaws, cockatoos, African greys, eclectus, caiques and larger conures. The hanging design lets birds pull, swing and climb as well as chew, and the bell adds sound and movement that many parrots love.

How to Use

Hang the toy securely from the top of the cage or aviary, positioning it where your bird can reach it to chew and climb but still has room to move. Let your parrot chew, pull, swing and shred as it likes. Check the toy and its rope regularly, and remove it once the blocks are chewed down or the rope is worn, to keep things safe. Swapping in a fresh toy when this one is well used keeps your bird engaged.

Good to Know

Rotating a few toys in and out of the cage keeps parrots more interested than leaving the same one up all the time, since novelty holds their attention. Hang chew toys away from perches where droppings gather, and check the hanging clip and rope are secure so the toy can't drop. Supervise how your individual bird plays, and remove any small or frayed pieces as the toy breaks down. Wear and tear is normal and expected with a chew toy, it means your parrot is using it exactly as intended.
