Toy Making
In this class we will teach you one aspect of environmental enrichment, Toy Making. Parrots in the wild spend their day flying, foraging for food, chewing branches, and interacting with their flock mates. It is up to us to provide substitute activities with the focus on "Toys" and how to create them with bird safe materials.
