Jasmine's SilverBowl and Other Toys

Jazzy is a bird, as you probably know by now, and birds need lots of things to do.
Jazzy has a stainless steel bowl to put many of her toys in. She likes to sit on the rim and play.












She has lots of different things to choose from. (Click on images to enlarge.)

There are untreated wooden shapes to gnaw on,...

...stainless steel metal loop bolts with pins to unscrew,...


...stainless steel straight bolts and washers to undo,...


...wooden toys threaded onto wood sticks,...







...more wooden toys threaded onto the straight bolts along with washers for challenge and interest,...






...extremely hard plastic
gadget that's a nice color and sometimes fun to experiment with,...





...small unscented, untreated rawhide dog toys to chew and dismantle,...well, and yes, sometimes to soak very nicely in the water bowl to make it really soft!,...



...the before and after of the moccasin rawhide,...



...the occa
sional untreated wooden clothespin,...




...and interesting spiral etched wooden peg.








Jazzy also likes to play with a rawhide bone hung on the side of the cage. We drilled a hole in it and threaded it through a fastening bolt. It is also made of stainless steel, as is all of the metal Jazzy plays with. Other metals can cause metal poisoning. Of course, the fastening bolt is a definite hit for playing with too.





















When she pushes it all the way to the end of the cage she has a good stretch to reach it.














Jazzy likes to spend a bit of time with a
book before retiring at night. You can see it there ready for her on the cage.









It's a very appreciated and well-used book!



And she has small cardboard boxes that she can hold in her hand and work at.

Here you can see her standing on her nylon cutting board platform very engrossed with her box.There are also many fantastic stainless steel toys at Birdsafe Store and nice extravagant wooden ones at Chirp n Squawk that Jazzy very much looks forward to getting in the future. Jazzy is a DIY type of bird. To see more of her in action with her toys you can go to DIY Bird.
