Default African Grey Timney Toys
Hi Everyone,

I have 4 months until my baby boy comes home:)))) I want to start now and make many different toys for him. I would love to hear your ideas on the different kinds of foraging toys I can make for him. Instructions and pictures would be super.

Thanks

Congratulations! Here is a website where there are a bunch of foraging toys. Maybe you can get some ideas from here. Make sure you use stainless steel for any metal that you may use in the toys. EDUCATIONAL & FORAGING by Bird Paradise

The treasure chest one in that link Kathie gave you is a big favorite of my guys. I will have to take a picture of a toy I made for Scarlett. It is a plastic ball that I put almonds in and hang from her cage and she works to get them out. I'll post some pics of that one tonight or tomorrow.

I've heard about this toy from someone else too so it must be pretty good! I look forward to your pictures!

Thanks

Okay I can't get a picture right now but here is a picture of the type of ball I bought. I put some almonds through the slots and hung it in her cage. She is always all over it trying to get an almond out.
