The Coollapet Rainbow Sushi is a column of wooden rings, each with a brightly dyed disc set loose inside it, strung one above the other.
Key Features
- Each ring is a separate small job, so a bird that loses interest quickly always has somewhere new to start.
- The coloured centre sits loose in its ring - the obvious thing to prise at.
- Narrow column that hangs against the cage side without taking up flying room.
- Hardwood rings under the dye.
- Hangs from a clip that fits standard cage bars.
Good To Know
- Chain, quick-links and bells are the usual route to zinc and lead poisoning in parrots. Watch for a bird that strips the coating off metal, and if you ever replace the clip, use stainless steel rather than galvanised hardware from a hardware shop.
- The colours are dye on wood. Expect them to fade, and to stain a wet beak and the cage tray - that is the dye, not blood.
- Match the toy to the bird. Hardware built for a macaw will trap a budgie's foot, and a toy built for a budgie is destroyed in minutes by a large parrot, leaving pieces small enough to swallow.
- Check the toy over every few days. Retire it once parts are chewed through, frayed or splintered - worn toys are where beaks and toes get caught.
- A bird that stops playing, sits fluffed on the cage floor or goes quiet is showing the first signs of illness - birds hide sickness until they can no longer manage it. That is an urgent avian vet visit, not a wait-and-see.
