Product to Mimic Foraging Behavior

[WebsterJ]

I'm new to this forum and I used to work for ZuPreem. That is when I came up with this idea. As I understand it, there is a need for products that help to mimic foraging behavior and I think this product may do it. Here is the link: http://www.webster-marketing.com/entrepreneurship-forager.php

I'm calling it The Forager. I would develop it myself, but I just am not in a place right now where I can do that. I would hate to see it not get developed if it can actually help some birds. I'm curious to see what everyone thinks about it.

I like it.
Its looks very similar to something I thought up about 10 minutes from now.
I will race you to the patent office. Ready, set,......wait for it,....Go!
Kidding aside, thats looks really smart and clever.
Btw, I cant get Zupreem in Oztralia. Why not?

It looks good, but a couple of questions if I may,

1, The pellets get released into the chamber (I get that bit) but how would the birds need to forage for them, couldn't they just sit and wait for the pellets to be dropped into the chamber????

2. I'm not sure how a kitchen timer works, except I turn it and it rings when the time is up, what sort of mechanics would this use inside to make it turn?????

I am always hiding treats for my Grey (who isn't a plucker) in his cage, toys etc and I have a few toys that he has to work to get the treats out, but now that he knows how it works its easy so not ideal, I love the idea of our birds having to work and hunt for treats to stop them getting bored, so yeah if this is one of those then it sounds great.
Thanks and sorry for the questions, but knowing me there'll be more to follow.

ya theres a few toys ive seen similiar to that... but yours does sound great! Yours sounds more.. complicated for the bird.. which is good! it will keep the bird going for awhile.
