      Sometimes the homemade are better than the store bought and safer too. I stick to natural materials colored with food coloring while some bird toys sold are plastic with many insafe dyes and break and have ingredients or things that your bird should not have. I know you said foraging toys but consider the bird climbing ropes or bird hammocks as these are simple net tying methods. The rope or material to do this is available from farm stores to Amazon to craft stores.

    I bought some finger traps from AliExpress months ago and my parrotlet didn't seem to care too much for them. After several different treat offerings I tried the full millet spray tucked inside. Destruction ensued! Now whatever I put inside one of these, he destroys them immediately. Definately his favorite foraging toy!

      I know your comment is from two years ago, but just in case anyone else is wondering the same thing: I wouldn't recommend repurposing a wire coat hanger as they typically wouldn't be made from a bird-safe metal. Stainless steel wire is generally the safest option.

      pretend that you are playing with the toys,be enthusiastic about them.My cockatiel is also not used at all to any kind of toys or playing,and she is not very attached to me,but I have been making her toys and what helps is me pretending to be very interested in them,to play with them in front of her,call her name and praise her! It works like a miracle honestly,she becomes very interested in what I'm holding and what I'm playing with and tries to mimick me.Do this for longer periods of time and reward with a treat(I give her millet,you can use sunflower seeds or whatever she prefers the most).In that way,your bird will start associating the toys with the treats,and will automatically be more keen to playing with them. What is most important is to give your birdie time to get used to them ! It's not easy and you definitely need patience,but I'm already in the 4th day of encouraging this and my cockatiel is already foraging and playing with paper toys. You can do it!!

      hi! do you mean the colored tissue paper that you use for gifts or like tissues? i'm not entirely sure if colored tissue paper is safe because of the dyes and i wouldn't use tissues either. when you're not sure, stick to what you know is safe like white copy paper, newspaper, and unbleached/natural brown paper like brown paper bags!
      if anyone knows if tissue paper is safe, please comment below and help a fellow parront out! 💕
