    Toys and enrichment?

    We have sandboxes and roost bars. This seems boring to me. Does anyone use parrot toys or any other fun things? They like to pick at my jewelry and buttons on my pants 😂 One even stole a nail I was holding (I got it back) so I’m thinking shiny things would be a hit. They don’t look at the mirror...

    Ducklings

    Would it be safe for my ducklings to sleep in dog/cat beds? (new, not used) and have stuff like blankets and stuffed animals around their coop? I will have straw, hay and normal bedding underneath and then the beds ontop, is that okay for them?

    Are indoor bird toys safe for chickens?

    Hi! I’m trying to find ways for my closed run silkies to have some enrichment. Some blog posts online say that indoor bird toys are fine, some disagree. Anyone have any experience with this? Thoughts?

    Climbing Wall Fun for Chickens?

    I'm considering adding a series of shelves or something as a climbing wall on the side of the coop. Do you think chickens would use and enjoy such a thing? Has anyone tried something like this?

    Chicken Toys

    It’s been rainy a lot, and we have had a lot of workers coming to work on a fence and things, this stuff leads to us having to keep our birds in their run all day with nothing to do. What are some fun toys and things I can put in for them?

    Not sure if this would go here, but seemed behavioral? What toys/items will help keep my chickens active?

    My chickens will have to be in their coop/run most of the time, as we are in an area with lots of predators and we don't have a fenced yard. I want my chickens to be able to move around/have stuff to do, but I'm not sure what I could use. I'm planning on putting in sand for dustbathing, and a...

    Reccomended toys for budgies

    My budgies have mirrors and bells and beads. They don't use their swing. I built them a little playhouse out of cardboard and they seem to enjoy it. A simple stick with a string or ribbon tied to it entertains then for long periods of time. They are starting to get more playful- I have a bit of...

    How can I decorate my quail cages?

    For a while now, my male quail cages stand completely empty. I have male button quails that are neighbors with my male coturnix, and all they do all day is run alongside the cage walls and try to peck each other (thankfully the male button quails get along with each other). So now I'm trying...

    Duck entertainment...

    Besides swimming... what do you do to keep your ducks entertained?? Do they play toys? What kind of toys do they like? Mine are getting lazy.. I’m guessing it’s because winter is here!
