Small Parrot Bird Trick Toys

Imagine little Parakeet, Cockatiel or Lovebird shooting hoops like a pro! Or, bowling a strike?

Most bird trick toys are made for medium to large parrots. But, we’ve found a new source for petite and small bird trick toys. Basketball, Bowling and Skeetball. Gosh, your small pet bird just might make the Parrot Olympics cut!

Parrotlets, Parakeets, Cockatiels and Lovebirds can be trained to perform tricks just like their larger cousins. Most people underestimate these tiny, little parrots since they are designated as “beginner” birds. All that really means, is that small pet birds and parrots are not only better domesticated, they of a size that makes troublesome instinctual behaviors much more tolerable! Chatter, nipping and mess.

But, these little pet birds are still pretty darn smart. Did you know that the American Parakeet is one of the best talking parrots around? Or, that the loving Cockatiel is not only a cuddler, but a wonderful whistler and companion. Whatever the species, birds and parrots survive best in a flock. Pet parrots and birds see their guardians as their flock. A well loved parrot that is properly trained using positive bird training techniques will come to crave performing tricks on command simply to entertain and bond with YOU. No matter the size of the little fellow.

That is why we find these new bird trick toys so important. Yes. These bird trick toys are affordable. But, more importantly, this new line of bird trick toys helps the pet bird guardian / owner to experience an unimaginable bond with their pet. And, what more could you ask for a small $5.00 investment?

One of my latest reads, ALEX & ME, was over-whelming in terms of my enthusiasm for animal parrot research but it is  also a love story.  I imagine that if you love parrots, you’ve heard of Alex, the African Grey Parrot.  Dr. Pepperburg has painstakingly devoted her entire life to show the world that animals are more intelligent than anyone has EVER imagined. (DONATE HERE)

Dr. Pepperburg’s research is part of a growing mound of evidence that parrots and many other wildlife are intelligent and cognitive creatures with the ability to communicate.

I’m prepared. I had the furnace checked. I’ve pulled out my flannels and my cozy winter robe. Got my warm, fuzzy slippers out of the box. Bought an electric throw and cleaned up and filled up the humidifier.

One of our favorite bird stands is the Floor Length Java Tree.  Talk about giving your parrot an enriching, jungle like experience!  This bird stand is impressive from the tray up.  The tray is braced well and is very sturdy.  Four swivel casters enhance mobility.  The actual tree arrives in two parts that attach with with steel pegs.  Assembly is a breeze and once assembled, this bird stand is not only sturdy it’s down right attractive! 

I’m planning on customizing my Java Tree Bird Stand.  Firstly, I plan to paint the inside tray surface with  Rubberized Paint available at most large hardware stores.  While I’ve never done this before, I’m hoping that it makes the bird stand tray less prone to wear from acidic bird droppings and easier to clean .  Next, I plan to attach one or two Lixit 10 oz. Lock Down Cups to the tree.  Finally, I’m planning on adding foraging features like those shown on our Captive Foraging DVD.

Go Nuts Foraging Bird Toy

The Go Nuts Bird Toy is a refillable, foraging toy for parrots.  Made from 100% cotton rope, vegetable leather, and peanuts, this 5″ x 4″ bird toy is great for medium to large parrots that love to forage and untie knots. Leather patches have holes that reveal peanuts. But, your parrot has to think and work in order to get at the treats!

To refill, just untie the cotton rope and place nuts inside.

What’s so great about this bird toy, you ask?  It makes your parrot forage!  Foraging is when your parrot has to use it’s natural, inate behaviors to get at a desired item.  In the wild, parrots have to literally problem solve in order to get a meal.  With Go Nuts, your parrot has to problem solve how to get the peanuts.  Untie knots, squeeze peanuts through the holes, etc.  Wanna make it harder?  Get some stainless steel screws and nuts at your local hardware store for your parrot manipulate.   Or, put a larger, harder shelled nut inside!

We suggest that you purchase extra leather strips if your parrot is like Peachy who loves chomping through leather.

We left it on the floor with one of her favorite toys in it for a week, so she could get used to it before we used it.
