SunGrowParrot Wooden and Rope Chewing Toy, Multi-Shaped and Multicolored Blocks and Cotton Rope with Hanging Loop

My lovely wife bought me a Timneh African Grey Parrot about 30 years ago. Socrates was a beautiful little chick who used to take masticated food out of my mouth at feeding time. He absolutely loved me! But then he (she) laid an egg and we realized that we had a female although he had supposedly been sexed as a male. Somewhere in her second year with us she directed her love to my wife and became angry with me. We don't know why, but I ended up being bitten numerous times before I stopped reaching into her cage to pet her. Try as I might I couldn't get her to favor me as she had originally.Not long after that she started plucking her chest feathers. Bored birds are known to do that and fortunately she only concentrated on her chest. If you have ever been to a parrot sanctuary you will see that it is not uncommon to find a few birds that are virtually fully plucked. They often show other unusual behaviors and the combination results in owners giving up their birds to a sanctuary. Either they didn't know what they were doing wrong or just got tired of trying to work things out.To deal with our plucking problem we switched her food to Lafeber Nutriberries along with fresh fruit and veggies. We also spray her with water every day and let her sit in the sun for 30 minutes to absorb some Vitamin D. We added a section of PVC pipe for her to nest in and every other day we put an empty box in her cage for her to tear up. We also take her out at night so that she can sit on a perch and glare at me to her heart's content.Finding a toy that she liked has been problematic. Most of them sit unattended in a corner of her cage until we take it out and fasten it to her night-time perch. Therefore we expected her to reject this SunGrow Chewing Toy and simply watched and hoped for the best. It took her two days to get to it but now she spends a good amount of time analyzing it and tearing pieces off. Obviously it's a winner for her and at only $11.95 it's a winner for us. This is a great choice for a finicky parrot.

Have purchase this toy several times and both my African Greys enjoy it, both the wood to chew up and the ropes.

Bird toys are so pricey. Birds loved it and tore it up in no time

I have ordered this product 10 different times but when I received it today and took it out of the packaging, the toy had an odd smell to it. Never before had the item had a smell. I ended up throwing it away as I was not giving it to my bird or returning for it to be resold for another bird. Normally, hands down, I recommend it but this time I felt very uneasy with it. It's a great toy for my Grey but not this particular one I received today.

This is the second one I bought for Emmie,a Blue Front Amazon. She got so much joy destroying the first one I couldn't resist getting her another one! I'll probably do it again, just sayin 😁

The media could not be loaded. My CAG loves this toy and IMMEDIATELY started chewing and playing with it when I hung it in her cage. I’ve never seen her go for a toy like she does this one, so once she succeeds in demolishing it I’ll be getting her another one! We’ve had it hanging for about a week now and although she has thoroughly decorated the bottom of her cage with pieces of this, there is still a ton of life left in it. It’s bigger than I expected, which makes it an even better value at $13... and I also appreciate that it comes with a clip to hang it. I (and she) would recommend this toy for sure!

Looks great to me, but for some reason is not attractive to their parrot eyes. Hence 3 stars.

great parrot toy
