diy toys

Hi all, I nicked an idea I seen on reddit and made a parrot play area. Thought I'd share that for anyone interested. Bought some pegboards and some perches with threads, cut the treads down and replaced the wingnuts and penny washers for nyloc nuts so it would be flush to the wall and not...
