I tried out a monthly subscription box

[IndySE]

So, confession time, I've gotten lazy and uninspired in the toy department. Kermit was getting bored, but I just couldn't think of what she'd want to play with. I took a few stabs at it, but most things I made are apparently Very Scary (there is an empty pill bottle filled with cool little doodads that has remained untouched), so I decided to let someone else take a stab at entertaining my feather demon.

I just want to share some of the results ! It started off as Scary but slowly but surely I've been seeing her destroy her first toy ! I'm so proud. I haven't seen her unleash her destructive demon of chaos in a long time <3

Since I cant drive for ahile, this is a good dea. Name of company and webite? How much is the subscription? Salty is never scared of new toys - he knows if I hang it on his play stand its for him to destroy. Inside his caage - diff story. He has his footie toys he will throw around and bang, but new stuff just sits there.

It's a really nice find ! I love the thought they put into selecting in the box, and they even include shredded paper and use a safe bird-approved cardboard in packing so the birds can get in on the action if they want

It's called a squawk box. For my GCC it's $30 a month (but that's if I do it only a month at a time... it gets cheaper with 3 months at a time). For an amazon, you'd probably go with the mid-sized toys which is probably $30-40 a month for 4-6 toys and a treat ... pretty cheap by bird standards heh

Here's a link for your convenience!

That is really nice!

That’s a great idea . I was recently thinking of doing a box subscription for my dog. Large dog toys are just as expensive (or even more) as bird toys, and destroyed just as fast or faster. I should do this for the birds and dog. A drawback is, you don’t get to pick and choose which is part of the fun. Then you might get stuff that you or the animals don’t like.

BB loves toys. Especially the ones that have colored strands of paper hanging. He will yank at the strands as he waves his arms frantically and chirps/growls lol.
Amy has quite a few toys but it is hit or miss with him

I was thinking about trying the squawk box myself?
