perches

I’m trying to figure out how to replace the dowel perch that came with my green cheek conures cage, with a natural one. Any ideas or suggestions? I included pictures of the cage I bought for reference of the length and size.

Hello there I've looked around and decided I really want to bring home a green cheek conure as my companion. I've been shopping for toys, and what I have so far are 12 shredding toys, 2 puzzle toys, 5 different "natural" perches [naturally shaped for their feet], a sandpaper perch for their...

I’m getting a Quaker parrot soon (I was going to get an Alexandrine, but I decided against it) and I’ve been having a hard time finding natural branch perches big enough. Does anyone know a good brand of perches (to big is better than to small) that is affordable? :)

Hi, I was wondering if anyone had a good suggestion of some bird perches that don't have any hazardous materials like zinc hardware? I made the mistake of getting some perches from etsy where it seems no one will tell you upfront on their page. You have to specifically ask and, well, I...

Based on my research ,these are good perches, but id Like some advice

The perches that were bought for these cages came with round clamping washers that are just a bit too small. Instead of reaching 4 horizontal bars, they only touched on 2, barely 3, which isn't enough for adequate support... which makes the perches a little wobbly. And in tightening to correct...

Hello everybody, I was looking at some new perches and toys for Cookie's cage, but I think I am becoming paranoid... So, most of the current cage accessories are inherited from my dearly missed cockatiel Pachito, but he definitely wasn't as active (destructive) as this little GCC hurricane...

I got a cockatiel from a breeder a few weeks ago, put him (actually a her) in his own cage and he quickly got used to his new home and is very happy here, but I noticed he doesn’t really sit on perches but rather he perches onto of his food or water dishes or toys and sits on the bottom of his...

A large tree branch fell in front of my building and it was the perfect shape for a perch. The tree it fell from is a London Plane tree which is of the sycamore variety. 1) is this safe for my bird to chew 2) if I clean off the bark and decontaminate it by soaking it in a solution should I...

I'm finishing up my preparations to bring Maui (WBC) home but I'm getting stuck on deciding on appropriately sized perches. I have a good roosting perch (2.5 cm diameter), some sisal rope perches, a manu mineral perch, and a flat corner shelf. Unfortunately I am having a hard time finding a...

I've been thinking of making a DIY PVC tube perch for Callum. Any advice? I had a very rudimentary one before I moved and he didn't pick at the toys too much, he just loved looking out his window. Should I add toys despite his apparent disinterest in them before? How tall should it be? I'm...

Harry has been with me 2 1/2 months now. We do daily hand training sessions but we are not beyond having my whole hand just inside a food dish door. He get frantic when I get more invasive with things like removing or installing perches. He has eight perches he uses all the time. I try to...

Hi all , I’ve recently seen a post online about bumble foot and I’m suspicious that one of my fids may have it. I will attach pictures if any one of you reading this have seen or had experience with bumble foot before. It seems like a very early stage. I’m suspecting it’s probably due to the...

Yesterday I went to the Dandenong ranges and there was a little area where you could sit down and look into the forest. I was looking around and I saw a fallen over gum tree, so I snapped some sticks and branches off for my budgies. The branches have little areas with black spots that scrape...

I went in to sticker shock yesterday when I went to the store to buy branches and perches for a playstand I'd like to build. Ended up leaving empty handed! :mad: Anyway, my dad is a wood turner and I'm wondering what types of sticks and branches I could ask him to start stockpiling for me...

What are your Amazon's favorite perches? Do they like swings or boings? I'm going to meet a BFA this week. If all goes well, he'll be coming home with me. :)

Hello, I am new to this forum and new to being a parrot owner. My sister has 3 parakeets and I have always loved birds, but never really decided to get one. I have mostly small furry pets, but my awesome mother surprised me with a Jenday Conure. Now before you all go nuts lol, I received this...
