Understand from the 'git go' - we are BIG advocates of do-it-yourself toys.  Making your  own is the best way to be sure the parts are  bird-safe.  We do use and sell some commercial toys, usually modified a bit.  We sell some toys parts and many of our toys and parts may be recycled.…..These pages  are works in progress.  I add items when we find and make new toys  - when I'm not too busy feeding little peeping feathered ones.  If you would like to place an order, please send us a post: feffies@aol.com

Did they really put rocks in that basket?  Yes.  Do they really want me to buy a basket of rocks?  Not particularly.  If you have a basket of rocks at home, or can assemble one, yours will be fine. However, believe it or not, your baby should have a basket of rocks.  In the wild, parrots spend most of their time foraging.  In captivity, we need to simulate the natural environment as closely as we can. 

Of all the foraging toys we have bought and made, this one is our flock's favorite. Here's what you do:

- Get a basket (natural wicker - no varnish.)
- Put favored foods in the bottom (red peppers, Nutriberries, etc.)
- Put (clean) rocks on top of the food.
- Put brightly colored foot toys on top of the rocks.

Foraging toys are
very important, so we sell our rock baskets for $5.00 - roughly what it costs us to assemble them.  If you have rocks at your house don't feel obligated to buy one.  Otherwise, do feel obligated.  Your baby will thank you.
