Bird Cage Toys Bird Supplies
If you have a pet bird or plan on getting one in the future, you will need to get bird toys as well. Bird toys are essential to the health and well being of your 
bird. Bird toys provide mental stimulation to your bird to prevent boredom, and help to provide habits that your bird would naturally act upon in the wild. It can be a daunting task however, to try and choose bird toys for your bird, because there are so many to choose from.
When you go to find toys for your bird, you need to find a toy that is the correct size for your bird. If you choose a bird toy that is too small for your bird, it can pose a choking hazard. If you choose one that is too large, your bird may not play with it and large pieces can actually scare them.
Most pet stores that sell bird toys will have the toys separated into sections based on the size of your bird. If you own a large bird, such as a Macaw or African Grey, you will need to choose bird toys with large pieces. The toy should have large blocks of wood and large beads or other pieces on it that your bird can chew on without risk of swallowing a piece. Since birds are notorious for climbing and hanging on their toys, toys for large birds should have thick, sturdy ropes and strong clasps to attach them to the cage with. This way, if the bird does choose to try and hang from it, the toy is strong and sturdy and will not risk breaking causing possible harm to your bird.
If you have small birds, such as cockatiels, parakeets, budgies or conures, you will probably have a much larger selection of toys to choose from since these are much more common birds as pets. Toys for these birds should be made of pieces that are relative to their size. They should not be to large, because they can scare the birds or even injure the birds if they are too big. While some large parrot toys may be alright for your smaller birds, you should generally avoid them, and stick with toys that are specifically made for small birds. Many people unknowingly believe that their small birds will love having a bigger toy and that it will last longer, however they really are not the best choice for little birds.
The good news for you is that bird toys come in a large number of shapes and sizes. Many online pet stores offer an extremely large selection of bird toys for your bird. Keep in mind however, that birds do have a personality of their own and while you may think a toy is nice your bird may not. Buying a variety of bird toys will give your bird a large selection of toys to choose from and also give a selection to use to rotate toys to prevent your bird from getting bored.
