Product Description
Providing activities for "Birdie Buzzsaws" and "Avian Einsteins" is a challenging and ongoing task for companion parrot owners. Parrot-Toys and Play Areas covers all aspects of play and encourages owners to "put some fun" into their parrot's life. Whether they choose to purchase or make their own parrot toys or play areas, bird owners will find this book loaded with practical advice, safety tips, and loads of ideas for both toys and play areas. By identifying their parrot's Play Style, an owner can find out what kinds of toys their parrot really likes. The Eleven Parrot Toy Categories then make toy selection fun and easy. In Part 2, play areas become exciting Parrot Adventure Stations with buying guides and building instructions.

5 out of 5 stars I am so pleased   October 31, 2008
This book is well thought out... full of good information and reasons for keeping the cage stocked with toys.. I never thought about replacing a toy until I read that you can put them away and get them out again... Cockatoo's chew them up or figure out how to open them Now I can take it put it away for a few months and get it out again...


5 out of 5 stars Great Book on Bird Toys & Activity Sets   October 9, 2008
As a crafty person who just rescued an umbrella cockatoo from an abusive household, I am very, very pleased with this book. I don't have a lot of money to be throwing around to buy toys, but I do have a bunch of PVC pipe from a project some years ago and am putting it to good use thanks to this book. Great buy!


5 out of 5 stars GREAT BOOK!!!   July 13, 2008
I really liked this book. It has great ideas on how to keep you birds busy!
I have tried many of the ideas and my four birds LOVED them.
I shared the book with my sister and she is planning on ordering one.
Thanks!

If your a beginner to toys and playareas this will be hard to go by; there are NO pictures.


5 out of 5 stars Great for improving your birds life!!   May 9, 2008

This book categorises parrot personalities and describes 11 types of toys that will suit their individual traits. It then offers ideas for safely making these toys.

My birds seem to be so much happier having a variety of toys that are designed specifically for their needs.

My only gripe is the book provides diagrams for making bird gyms etc, but doesn't give any pictures or diagrams for the home-made toys.
