Prevue Pet Products Hendryx 62801 Naturals Coco Hideaway with Ladder Bird Toy,1 Count (Pack of 1)

Nice

People, please tell us what kind of bird you have when you publish a review!!The person giving a one-star review said their bird chewed through the rope bridge, right away. What was it, a parrot? I have a parakeet, and I've studied the construction, and there's no way he'll chew through it.This is such an adorable accessory to his cage. I prefer natural stuff (non-plastic) in my own life, so its nice to find something like this for my parakeet. Did I mention I have a parakeet?He was scared of it, at first, I think because it sways when he lands on it. I started putting his millet sprays inside the coconut, and now he goes to it quite often. Hint: use millet sprays to entice your birdie to any new toys!It is a fairly large item, so I think small cages may not be compatible with it. It is adorably hung from the roof of my tall cage, and I can't wait to hear people comment on it. I bet I hear "spoiled bird" mentioned a lot. LOLUse millet seed sprays, and I'm sure you'll like having this, too.UPDATE:I now have two parakeets. The new one, a one-month old, hopped right on the rope bridge and went all the way inside the coconut his first day in the cage! My other one never goes all the way into the coconut. He sits on the doorway and reaches in to eat the millet seeds, always pulling his head out in between seeds to look around.So, it has a lot to do with personality! It's cute how bold and unafraid the new bird is, but of course the more timid one would last a lot longer in the wild. Anyway, your bird might be shy of new toys because it's his/her nature. Remember to use the millet sprays.

Beware - this coconut has risk factors. My 3 month old English Budgies love to play on the coconut and chew all over it. One of them got his feet caught up in the twine on the attached bridge coming out of the coconut. Fortunately, he freed himself before he was injured. Then, after I removed the twine and bridge part, my budgies played on the coconut until another 3 month old budgie got her toe hung in a small hole and was dangling helplessly until I gently picked her up and freed her toe. She could have broken her leg! So be careful with this coconut. I had to remove it from my cage. It is more suitable, in my opinion, for a larger parrot breed.

While when I first got it I was ecstatic because of how nice it looked, though it was a little disappointing that it seemed to be smaller than I originally thought. While normally I would still give this 5 stars despite that, I've had this item in a cage for just over a week and a white-and-green mold has taken over the entire coconut and bridge. Thank goodness I noticed and have kept my pet away from it, however I am incredibly disappointed in being unable to continue using the coconut hideaway.

Our sugar gliders pee in their bed so to speak. I can’t get the smell out of this. I ended up tossing it after about a month. Really cute though.
