View Full Version : What did you get your birds for Christmas?
I got two Crow's Nests from Grey Feathers. Blusher loves them and I hope Leroy will too. (If you follow the link, that is Blusher when I first got her. I have to get Monica a better photo of Blusher with the Crow's Nest.)

What did you get your birds? I know mine will be so happy to get store bought toys. I think all of mine tend to look just alike. I have heard raves about all of these toys.

Thats a neat foraging toy Dot. Spoiling birdies and kiddies on christmas makes the holiday so much more fun.
I made toys for the birds this year, since there are 16 of them including fosters and we aren't the most wealthy people out there...
Here is a picture after they were all made.

Anna, you did a wonderful job. I have a question though - which of the 16 birds gets that baby? :D

Since Chicken does better with toys I make instead of toys I buy, I bought some toy making stuff and wrapped some if it for him to open. **I didn't have time to make them... I'm a bad mommy hehe**
And he's getting a cage VERY soon!

Two of my birds got my wife something for Xmas. My wife allowed one of my Male M2s on her shoulder and she was wearing a red scarf. She got between him and the scarf and guess what? He bit her good. Then later on in the day she got in between my U2 and a paper bag and got nailed again on the same finger. Merry Xmas MOM!!!!!! Don't you love them!

Dot those are great toys. I love that Blusher is posing with the crow's nest on the first link :D
Anna, your toys look great. I am not nearly that creative.
My inside guys get to share the bird tree. The outside crew all got extra toys... but it wasnt much different than any other day, LOL. The G2's demolished one in just a few hours. It is hard to keep up with them.

Harry U2 got a boing, some blocks on rope & a new soft foraging perch. Took a while for him to climb onto the boing & still hasn't bounced yet. The blocks are being happily chewed to splinters. Buzbie Quaker is enjoying his new chew toy & has to share a good sized ladder with the Tiel & budgies. So far so good it's fun when they appreciate what you have done & don't cower away from it.
Navi got extra mixed nuts and a new hard rubber ball for his birthday, he loves to play catch with them - he throws it out of his cage to me and I throw it back in....

I was sick for two weeks, so I was forced to buy toys. Also, I had just heard of the ones I bought. I think I will be able to duplicate the braniac but I needed to see one first. If I can duplicate it, I know it will be ugly, but they never care. I love to make toys for them
Harry U2 got a boing
Don't forget that you can hang that boing horizontally too. Blusher can climb up the rope on the circular swing and cross that boing to the Jolly Ball in a heart beat.
Did you get one of those swivel things so the boing can go round and round?
