When To Replace Plastic Toys ... ?

[Violet_Diva]

As some of you may know,
I recently acquired a male eclectus called Dexter.
I'm in the process of replacing many of the in-cage toys he came with.

As you can see, he's obviously enjoyed chewing this plastic link chain for quite some time! As I was worried about him potentially ingesting small bits of plastic, I removed the chain from the cage.
Was I being overly cautious? Or was I right in thinking it's had its day?

Anyway, It has now been replaced with a new one.
At what stage of use would you recommend replacing these kind of toys in future?

All advice / comments welcome!

Not really worried about them eating the plastic, it's the germs that worry me.
