Default Which toys/perches/swings/etc are a MUST for large Macaws?

I need to know the "cool" things to get my future Mac. Fill me in please! What do your Macs just LOVE?!

I already know I'm going to get a couple large rope "boings". One for outside the cage on the ceiling, one for in the cage. I already have a large manzanita tree stand.

Bottlebrush! I have play stands, perches and toys and plan to order a hanging one in the near future. They love it.

OMG That site just TOTALLY sold me on bottlebrush! I'm getting some for each of my fids! Thanks for letting me in on that Karen

I think I'll sell my manzanita cage on CL and get a massive bb stand as well




What else? What else? What else?!!!!!

I would be lost without refillable grashopper monster toys. I have 2 of "the beast"

Grasshopper's Parrot Toys - Serious Chewing Toys for Your Parrots!

This is my second post today that I mention them... I have no interest in this company, I'm just an avid user and believer in the refillable stainless steel toys and refills. The birds love them, and they save me a bundle. Best of all... they get the colored toys they love, and I don't have to get dyed hands to create them!

I also couldn't give up my aviary.... but hopefully you can think about that once you have some more space.

In shell nuts - Costco has the BEST deals on those around the holidays. They have become my produce store as well.

I also really love the stainless steel refillable skewers that I get from Parrot Island.

Isn't his site the best and you will see his products are all he says they are! On his Client Happy Letters page is an email I sent him over 2 years ago. (It's the 9th. one down) The birds are as happy with BB as they were the day they first saw it.

Client Happy Letters, what my clients, and their birds, think about my Bottlebrush parrot stuff.

OMG That thing is flippin' sweet!!! You could even tie fruits and veggies to it with a little hemp rope......you guys have AWESOME suggestions so far and I'm ordering at least one of everything! I'll have the most spoiled Macaw around...so he'll fit in quite well at our PC flock

Also, when we get our own property, I plan on building an aviary for my fids! I just worry about theft, which runs rampant in Florida
