One of the girls on my other forum bought this for her parrotlet. Its advertised for canaries, tiels, keets, parrotlets and similar sized kids. Well, she is sitting there, and her parrotlet got his head stuck, went limp, and was hanging by his neck from this thing. Her quick actions saved his life, but it could have been awful if she wasn't right there and so alert. If you have this toy, it needs to go in the garbage.

Super Pet's newest toys in the Habitat Defined Enrichment Collection. It is called the Millet Muncher.

All my fids have wooden ladders in their cages. I weave the millet through the rungs of the ladder. Works great and is so safe.
