bird toys for climbing

Post by arhoads »

Does anyone know if this would be safe? Planet Pleasures Round Veg Leather Tower Small 8in Natural Bird Toy
It says its made of coconut shell, vege leather and bamboo
My Spider (he's an E) loves to climb, I have hemp net but last night he was climbing across the screen top, I think I need more climbing gear for him!

Lucky bamboo is apparently unsafe, but I guess the product description won't mention what type of bamboo it is. I'm not sure about the vege leather either. Spider climbing across the screen top doesn't necessarily mean that he's got no better places to climb, so don't worry too much. :)

Got a Micheals, WalMart, dollar stores in your area? Let the imagination go wild, think out of the box. If safe, many things can be 'hermified'. :D

my hubby saw a turtle item that he said he would get for me. I guess its a hidey hole but its really tall with ledges they can climb. I'll have to go check it out first.

Sounds good to me! One thing I started making sure of when buying any form of a hut is that it has 2 doors or larger windows that they can get out of in case one is blocking the doorway.
