Toys are used as a form of environmental enrichment but enrichment shouldn’t stop there.  As an ex zoo keeper it was a major concern that all animals must have a variety environmental enrichment to keep the critters entertained. This is the same for anyone who has a caged bird at home.  Enrichment is important because birds simply can not thrive with only perches, food and water.  The fact is birds provided with enrichment are unlikely to develop psychological problems such as self mutilation, feather plucking and excessive squawking.

*Enrichment tip – the trick to keeping them entertained is regularly rotating toys as they will become bored with the same toy in there cage day after day.  Changing them regularly will create interest for your bird as if they are receiving a whole new toy to play with.
