DIY HOMEMADE BIRD PERCH | PARROT SAFE MATERIALS
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 сер 2021
- Many bird and parrot owners are unaware of the risks associated with items like acidic wood, cotton and metal toxicity that are used to make bird/parrot toys and play areas/perches. My husband and I felt we were limited when it came to the available options so we made our own perches and play areas! This has allowed flexibility for us to make things that fit the spaces of our home and our Birds have been happier for it!

I definitely want to make a similar hanging swing perch like the first one you showed us. thank you...I've got some great ideas from your video!!
Hehehe your sun conure wants in on the video too ❤
I know this is old but the solution is contact paper! Linoleum will keep moisture under is as well
As always Thankyou 🙂. Always loved your outside aviary, and Cookies swing, bird happiness there 👍🏻. Take care.
What are the best veggies for a cinnamon conure ??
@@donnagurol3623 There is a video HERE on BFF on making CHOP for your parrots, very informative, using Birdtricks Natural feeding System, you can look them up on UA-cam, which is how I feed my parrots also.
You’re sweet thank you!! He does love his perch swing!
@@KB-df3dq thanks so much for everything you do for our flock
@@donnagurol3623 Hi Donna, NOOOOOO,, this is not my channel!!
I just watch and learn, and get a laugh like you do. Definitely no credit to be given to me at all, I have nothing to do with BFF, apart from enjoying it.
Cookie is the most handsome boy I’ve ever seen!!! 😍🥰😍😍 if I ever got a bird I would want a blue & gold macaw but idk if I’m brave enough to get a bird 😬
Also I LOVE the update 😍 so pretty
Haha they’re a handful! It’s a big undertaking, consider it carefully. Thank you! And thank you for watching!
Thankyou so much :) love watching your channel! 🥰
I can’t understand how your suns don’t mess with your glasses. I can’t wear my glasses or any jewelry around mine.
They will pick at my jewelry so I can’t wear any, but I’ve been consistent not letting them touch my glasses. They ruined a pair I had with rhinestones down the side and that was the end of that 🤣
What kind of wood should I not use?
Manzanita wood is usually what is found in the pet stores.
Very durable, not so easy to chew right through for my blue and gold macaws, Anna my little goffin cockatoo
would have subscribed but your title is misleading. You talk about all the DIY your husband did but didnt mention what trees or branches to use
Why does cookie wave her head like that as if she is calling someone over? My 8 year old macaw does the same thing and I don’t know why, but my other macaw doesn’t do it
Hi, i live in australia and the bird i have is native here. I use a native tree that is in the wild where it lives, is that okay to use?
I would check locally with your wildlife center, if you can’t find it on a safe list! That’s so cool what kind of bird?
@@bestflockingfriends Thankyou so much, I dont think you have these in America but he is a blue princess parrot
Spray lacquer coat on wood it truned like plastic and even u can wash it
This sounds great in theory but birds chew on these surfaces and walk on it and chemicals like that can be toxic!
A simple Google search of woods that are not safe You are literally using two of them lol
