Default Foraging Treats

Hi Everyone,


I'd like to know what kinds of treats you put in foraging toys and what toys are your greys fravorites.

I have 2 1/2 months to go and I want to start stocking up on some toys now.

Thanks

I don't have a grey, I only babysit one sometimes. He like the insides of toilet rolls and sometimes things hidden in paper packages. He has a fluffy rope preening toy that he like to fight with rather than preen. It is quite amusing to see him growling and attacking his toy. He also has blocks and foot toys.

Sounds like you need a grey of your own. Thanks for the ideas.

I don't need my own grey, I rather love them at a distance, my taste runs to south america.

I actually bought the very same one for my cockatiel but she doesn't like it so I will give the baby her hand-me-downs. I actually have a lot of hand-me-downs that my tiel does not like

Thanks for your response.
