Blu macaw facts
SOURCE: I just got the bird cabob as a present for my Macaws and they love it, is this healthy for them?
The Kabobs are great for parrots and they absolutely love it! It is not dangerous and usually made out of trees like cactus wood which parrots can't resist. So don't worry - let them chew!
You want to try and buy your parrot a selection of toys,
helping to distract your bird and keep it entertained for many hours a
day. I recommend looking for a good chew
toy, something for exercise, a long-lasting durable toy and perhaps a foraging
toy. Below are some links of great parrot
toys.
