I bought this for my rats and I'm so sure they're going to love it, I ordered another one

I was worried when I saw reviews saying this item has staples and glue on it. There are NO staples and NO glue anywhere. I took it all apart to make sure. I bought this for my rats and I'm so sure they're going to love it, I ordered another one.

My conure loved this toy

My conure loved this toy. Unfortunately, it lasted about a week. All that's left now is part of the bottom basket until I get my next order. I found out that it is really important for conures to keep busy because if they are not busy chewing and playing they will start plucking their feathers out. I had experienced that with other conures that I had. My bird seems to only like paper toys and does not like anything else. Also, this basket is very well constructed but I just wish they would make it a little bit more difficult for the bird to pull the paper out.

My Stinking birds love these....

Ok, they are not really stinking birds, but pampered and spoiled beyond belief. Zack and Zorro are cockatiel brothers and they love to forage and play. I have tried many toys for them, but this has been their favorite. I must be on my 6th one by now. They pull everything out, and I put it back. Eventually they will tear the basket from its hanger and then it's history! All in all, they probably get a months play out of one of these baskets....but they can be stinking destruct able when they forage and play. The best toy ever for my cockatiels.

One happy sun conure!! And totally safe, but didn't last long

My sun conure had the best time destroying this basket. It lasted maybe about 6 days with him picking things out, and me putting them back in. But then he started destroying the basket, too. I can't complain as that is what birds like to do. I did search this throughly for glue or staples and I can report that no worries, it is bird safe. I would like to suggest a basket that birds cannot destroy that we could fill with fun things for them to forage in. He loved all the items in the basket, and even though it didn't last long, I will definitely reorder because he enjoyed it so, so much. Probably his favorite toy ever!!!

Well made, colorful with lots of stuff!

This is a nice toy. Basket is bigger than I thought it would and filled with things to be taken out and played with or shredded. My Conure is afraid of it, won't go near it. I pulled one of the items out and tried to give it to her and she hid behind her perch. I like it, think it was a good buy and put it in her cage anyway, looks pretty on the back wall!!! She did touch one of the items, it's on the floor of her cage so I think she will get used to it and play at some point. I will put a treat or two in it and see if that draws her to it, if not it will hang prettily in her cage forever! It's nice, colorful and I think it's worth the money. It's obviously one toy that will last her a long time!

My Bird's Favorite Toy (UpDATED)

When I first put this small basket into my conure's cage, he didn't give it any attention. After I moved it to his shelf, so he could get to it easier, he started to play with some of the items inside. It took him a few days to acclimate to it being in his cage, but once he did, he would stand on top and pull and pull to try to get the toys out of it. They are tightly packed in there. First, he pulled out the crinkled paper, one strip at a time, shredded each piece, threw them to the bottom of the cage, and then went back for the finger trap toys. He destroyed one of them but the other four are still on his shelf, in various stages of destruction. He loves the grassy nesting material and will burrow under it. He tosses and chews on the popcicle sticks and the other wooden spoons. Now, about every three or four days, I'll take his things that he's thrown out of his basket and stuff them back in to the basket. This starts the foraging process all over again. This last time, though, he pulled everything out much faster, and he's started chewing on the basket itself. I watched him chew off the little plastic pieces on the front of the basket--quite frankly, I'll probably take them off the next time--they are small and I worry he'll try to eat or swallow them. If he were a bigger bird, like the Amazons, this could be dangerous. Given the price of this item, the fact it's lasted about a month now, and we'll probably get a few more weeks out of it before he tears up the basket so much we'll remove it from the cage, I'd say this is a great toy and a great investment for bird fun. I will definitely be buying more in the future. My bird absolutely loves foraging through this little packed basket. UPDATE: My conure finally, after several months, destroyed the first basket and all the inserts. So we bought another one. This time, there was no fear of it or anything when we put it in the cage--he went right to it and started picking through it. He absolutely loves this basket and it still is his absolute favorite toy! We will buy it again and again for him.

My sun conure LOVES it!!!

OMG!!! This toy is awesome! My bird loves all of the different stuff she can pull out and destroy!!!! The only thing is that it comes with the silver ring that most bird toys come with. A few weeks ago she pulled off the part that screws the ring closed and she got one end stuck under her beak and by the time she was unhooked, there was blood on the ring. So I have replaced all of those rings with caribiners instead. No troubles yet. Just remove all of those rings from all of your birds toys. I saw a pic on FB the other day where it poked all the way through the birds mouth.... :( so glad it wasn't that bird with my sun conure...

RIP Foraging basket of goodies.

My keets are still a little leery of it but its literally as stuffed as it appears. I suspect in a month or two they will tear into it. Thats how they roll just when you think they hate a toy they rip it to compete shreds 4 days later. Update:03/31/2016 --- AFTER several months of being in their cage I am now seeing the basket be chewed on and the items that are tucked into it on the bottom of the cage. It will probably last for another month or two at the rate they are going. So they must have decided its no longer evil and won't kill them. My keets are hilarious they will either go after something right off the bat or they decide its the devil and will wait 3 to 6 months to then decide it is now worthy of being destroyed. Update: 09/15/2016--- Oh the sad remains dangle as a cautionary tale for any future toys in the keets cage. This toy was lovingly disemboweled by my super destructive female keet Jilly. I call her "the destroyer" behind her back. It took her a while as for a month, she fell in love with one of the woven rolls and was dragging it here and there for days for some reason. Then she went into full on demo mode for the past two weeks. She screams at her other two siblings if they come near the basket. It is their for her pleasure alone. There are no more goodies in the basket. The bottom having been completely and utterly destroyed in a vicious display of female dominance. She is a vicious demon that little Jilly of mine.

Fun for your parrot!

This little basket is the perfect chew toy for an easily bored parrot. My lovebirds enjoy it so much because its filled with little toys inside the basket for them to tear up. The basket is durable and long lasting. Some of the toys inside basket are colored with food dye, just be forewarned.

Great to refill

Our Gold-capped conure ignored this thing for months. Every once in a while I would notice that he chewed one of the Popsicle sticks or some of the paper but otherwise, nothing. Then one day he decided it was time to really work it over. I wish I could see what goes through his brain sometimes. Anyway, he pulled all the stuff out over a couple weeks. What you see in the image is what you get in the basket. We left the empty basket hanging up and I like to bury a pistachio under a handful of empty pistachio shells in it to make him dig through for the treat. He checks it everyday now.
