Foraging
Foraging behavior is a natural instinct that birds still have from their wild past. In order for pet birds to be happy and entertained, the foraging instinct must be consistently satisfied via toys and treats that engage his mind and allow him to "hunt "for food. The bonus? Mentally and physically-engaged birds are less likely to experience cage boredom and the associated negative behaviors including screaming and feather picking.

Playtime Recommendations
Interacting with your bird is every bit as important as providing an interesting environment. The secret to keeping your bird happy is the frequency of attention, not the duration. A few minutes of attention several times daily works wonders to relieve stress. Mental growth comes from engaging in a variety of life experiences. Experiment to discover the types of toys your bird finds the most interesting and challenging. Keep in mind that no matter which toys you provide, and regardless of how intriguing, your bird will eventually tire of them. It is important not to place too many toys in the cage at once, which may over-stimulate your bird and cause stress. It's better to choose a select few and to rotate them every few days.

Tips for a Stress-Free Environment

If your bird is under constant stress, it may lead to fatigue, illness, weight loss, a weakened immune system, deteriorated plumage, or more. Protect your precious pet from the negative effects of stress.

Keep Bird Toys and Accessories Clean

Even in the cleanest cage, unclean toys and accessories increase the likelihood of transmitting harmful bacteria and disease. We recommend you clean toys and accessories weekly, right along with your cage-cleaning regimen.

Safe, Appropriate Bird Toys

Toys play an integral role in the physical and mental well-being of your pet bird.

Practical Ways to Exercise Your Bird

No matter how you encourage activity and exercise, the most beneficial aspect of your bird's time outside the cage remains his opportunity to interact with you.
