Default Heeeere's Bottlebrush!

Ok, so my order from Wayne finally came today. Occy took one look at it and flew into the wall. They wanted NOTHING to do with it. so I made a few toys with the loose pre drilled stuff and put perches in the cages. Tomorrow I will make more and post. Alex ended up really going at it so I took a little video.

Leigh! I love the toys! They're adorable! So is Alex still the only one who likes the Bottlebrush stuff? How are they doing with the perches?

Alex is the champ so far. He worked on the perch a few hours and really tore it up. Occy showed his some interest after I left the room I returned to find it chewed. He stepped on it, no problem for me. I was worried since I placed it in front of his water bowl. Afa flipped. I put the perch in and she threw herself on the opposite side of the cage. She was in the same spot an hour later. She will have to get use to it though. The smooth manzanita she had was unhealthy for her feet. I still have to place Mr Buddy's but I dont think he will really care. Tomorrow I make TOYZZZZZZ! The 2 I made so far were just testers to see if they would chew. So I only used the 1 piece of wood in them.

The pre drilled pieces are awesome. I can honestly say I recommend it. The perches are much bigger than the pictures look and the spinner toy is really neat. You get a lot of wood for the $39 price.
