Elmo getting new toys

[angelicvampyre]

So I found this pet shop that does natural perches for big birds and it is not that far away from me.

Here is the add on the trading post -> www.tradingpost.com.au/Pets-Horses/Pet-Accessories/AdNumber=W825447272945?CRDealerID=DlUKoQwkSIAAAAEalFYg3xbX&HotlistView=true&ExternalHotlink=1

I rang the lady and she said they had about 4 different types in and also a bunch of parrot toys. They also have King Parrots in at the moment (not that I am intrested but she was pushing me to buy another big bird) Looking at their listing they have a bunch of big birds for sale so I am going to leave my wallet at home and only take enough to cover one of the stands.

When I get it I will take pictures of it and post them here hopefully with Elmo on it!

Ok so I traveled out to the burds to find this parrot stand for Elmo only to get out there and discover that the 4 that they had in store are sold

So then I got some basic parrot toys and wandered around and pippi who was with me suggested we make our own stand. So we went and got wood from a local park/nature for wildlife area and spent about $20 at Bunnings and this is the end result









I have also been looking for another cage as I wanted one with flip dishes so that if I go away for a night my sister or parents can feed him without me worrying that he will bite them or at the very least do the whole "i am going to bite you" dance when they put their hand in his cage. However I found these which we just had to cut a whole in his cage and they fit great. Also fluke that we make one just the right hight so that when he is out we can flip his water around.

wow that is a great play stand (almost as good as mine. PMSLOL ;D ) and I love the food containers idea. I have a cage that needs that done to it. Will have to look around for it. You have a very lucky birdie there. ;D

They where great I was trying to save up $600 for a cage about the same size as mine that would have two in it (I really need four, one for seed, one for veggies and fruit, one for water and one for fruit juice) these ones are doubles and they cost $37 each so i got two one for each side of the cage which saved me sooooo much money!

thanks I did not know that you could buy them unattached to a cage so was really happy I stumbled across them, I walked past them about 4 times before I noticed them!
