A few days ago I took some of those woven palm Shredders and tied them all around the aviary, especially around the roosting perch. Well, what a success! The budgies love them. I've never seen them shredded in such a short time. I think they're actually leaving the wood alone in favor of these!! :lol:

yes, try a pinata, they love them! they also have at petco these wooden sticks that you hang (get the verticle ones, the horizontal ones makes them want to nest!) they shred out the soft wood on the inside... they LOVE them!

becarefull with the shredders, dont cut them too long, you dont want them tangled up in them!

I left about 4" sticking out after I tied the pieces on. Think that's too much?

I'll try to get those wooden sticks at Petco. They love to chew, especially the girls! :D

Isn't it funny we buy something we think they will really like and they are scared to death of it.
