Bird toy can be used for All Size Birds
We use Christmas tree stands to hold clean branches in. Then hang our parrots favorite toys from them.

My husband and I went to a craft store in Charleston(WV) and bought tons of wooden pieces in different shapes...hearts,stars,spools,balls ect..and also sisal,100% cotton rope and human grade food coloring paste to make toys for Mia.  Right now my kitchen table is covered with all sorts of colored pieces just waiting to be put together.  The options are endless and it has become a project that I do with my youngest daughter.
I figure Mia is only going on 6 months and and she'll need toys for a very long time.....toys that Ive bought from the pet shops are way over-priced,so this way the money I spend on one ready made toy I can make six or more for the same cost.  Plus,I'll get more pleasure watching her play with something that I know is 100% safe for her and made by us. We love her so much and only want whats best for her.
