Textured plastic base gives comfort grip and massages feet
Smart bird perch design features real pumice on the sides to trim claws and condition beaks. The textured plastic base your bird stands on has irregular shapes to massage feet. Diameter varies, too, like a real tree branch. Plastic mounting hardware included. Assorted colors.
Unlike heavier cement perches, this perch features a lightweight plastic base. Even the plastic attachment hardware is easy to use and difficult for your bird to destroy. Pumice coating on sides is considered safer than sand perches. Nontoxic and safe for your bird.
For best results, position the Safety Pumice Perch slightly above your bird's normal perch to ensure optimum usage. Place perch with smooth side up, so the ends of your bird's nails come into contact with the pumice on the side of the perch.

Cleaning Your Safety Pumice Perch
Remove perch from the cage to clean. Wash the entire perch, including the attachment hardware, with a nontoxic soap and water solution. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry with a clean towel. Make sure all moisture has evaporated before replacing in the cage. Weekly cleaning of toys and accessories is recommended to minimize bacteria buildup.

My Cockatiel has very tiny feet and I purchased the extra small perch for him and it quickly became his favorite perch. The lightweight design is a plus as its much easier to clean than the cement ones and the heavier ones tend to crack after some time.
I purchaced this perch for my African Grey. He was used to sitting on a sandy perch when he slept and I wondered if I could get him on this new one. I placed it higher than his sleeping perch and within a couple of days, he was using his new perch. It is now his favorite perch. I was disappointed though that I could not attach it to his usual place on the side of his cage. It only fits on vertical bars, if placed on horizontal bars the pumice is under his feet, so he had to get used to sleeping at the back of his cage but he does use it all the time now.
I love this perch. I was wondering if I was going to have to make extra trips to the vet just to trim her nails but did not like the idea since the last time our Greenwing was so upset at how the technician toweled her. I no longer have to worry about my Cockatoo cutting my arms with her sharp claws and she loves the perch.
Providing the variety of perches your bird needs is easy and inexpensive. A wide range of perches is available commercially, and you can also fashion a number of suitable perches from natural materials.
Perches, available in many diameters, lengths, and shapes for your particular bird species have many advantages. Offer a variety of perches to provide plenty of exercise and relieve boredom.
Several furnishings are needed for the cage. These include perches, dishes, grooming supplies, nest box, cage cover, and toys. Ensure that when accessories are in the cage that the bird still has plenty of room to fly and move around.
