Title: Re: A couple toys I made... Post by: LittleBeaks on January 08, 2011, 01:41:38 pm Great looking toy, what is is made of? Coffee filters, one small and one large wiffle ball, foam squares, string and one of those bird kabobs. :wink1:Title: Re: A couple toys I made...

Post by: Sondra on January 08, 2011, 02:59:25 pm Just separate each coffee filter and move one to the right and the next to the left, then right, then left, etc, and it will fluff up like mine did. You"fluff it once it's strung - it's the last thing you do before hanging it.
Title: Re: A couple toys I made... Post by: Ditty on January 08, 2011, 05:58:25 pm So LB did you put the filters throught the wiffle ball? :think:
Title: Re: A couple toys I made... Post by: LittleBeaks on January 08, 2011, 07:24:53 pm So LB did you put the filters throught the wiffle ball? :think: I folded them and stuck them in so they arn't attached. :wink1:Title: Re: A couple toys I made...

Title: Re: A couple toys I made... Post by: LittleBeaks on January 19, 2011, 07:27:14 pm You can see that the coffee filters are just stuck in so they can be pulled out some what easily.

I made a little filter one for Kito.....had to have it sit outside the cage for a couple of days. He was none to happy with it at first and beak clicked away till D took it out. We have to go slower with introducing new things with some of them. :dknow: Title: Re: A couple toys I made... Post by: LittleBeaks on January 20, 2011, 09:00:54 pm Thank you everyone. Nena was afraid of it too so it's not in her cage either. :smile3:
Title: Re: A couple toys I made... Post by: BPMar on January 21, 2011, 08:01:54 am We kept Kito's outside the cage a couple of days and then I hung it on the outside of the cage and he started tearing it up so then it went it. I had showed it to Squigg and Chico and they didn't seem scared of it....Julio on the other hand was a different story! :laffin2:
