I don't have any boings for mine. I  do have hanging ropes for my macaws to play on. Roscoe loves to climb all over his ropes & hang upside down from them.

I have read on other bird forums in the past about some owners having troubles with ropes causing toe loss, especially if the rope has frayed a bit at the cut ends. Some were adamantly against ever using ropes again. I can certainly understand the fear of toe loss happening if one should get tangled and no one was home to save them.

Like George said, we all have to be ever so watchful with all the toys we add to our feathered kids homes. And inspect them often. And we all know how fast our kids can find a way to get themselves into  trouble even when we have done our best to protect them.
