Sunnyside | Preening new feathers?
🕑 Added 2020-09-12 16:59:59 +0000 UTCKeeping a close eye on this guy... and yes, that is a new toy I had designed for my new BirdTricks line of toys. My tags are my favorite part of the toy - they're veggie tanned leather pressed with my logo!! So just creates another element of the toy that is safe for the bird to play with.
Check out my tags:

I'm slowly integrating my new line of natural toys in my toy boxes so be on the lookout in the next few months for this design - available in ALL sizes from small, medium and large. Very excited to be bringing some 100% exclusive toys made to you guys. Its been a really fun project.

Can’t wait to get the new toy. Cocoa loves those kind of toys. Anything similar to the kabobs! 😘

Gosh, I don’t think I’ve ever really paid attention to that aspect. If you asked Cressi she would tell you it’s not necessary at all 🙄 she truly doesn’t do it enough! I’ve mostly only noticed what provokes birds to do it (bathing, wind, getting outside into the sunshine, car rides, etc...)
BirdTricks
Exactly!! And I’m so glad they’re loving the toys! 🥰
BirdTricks
I’m so glad to hear that! I love working with Parrot Joy and am so happy to have her on board too. 🥰

He’s interesting in that if I can’t get him, Dave usually can and vice versa but I’d still say Dave is his person.

Those feathers just look stunning on him 😍

How much time to birds in captivity normally preen their feathers? It seems like Tucker spends a lot of his down time preening. He makes a special squeaky noise when he preens so I can tell even after I’ve put him to bed lol. He doesn’t pluck or mutilate any feathers and he is fully flighted, so we are lucky in that respect. Just curious as to what is “normal”?

He looks like a completely different bird. And looks so at peace in this video. I think even with the "crazy humans," 😉 Sunny believes he's living his best life.

Awesome!!! I can’t wait to see your toys! The tiels LOVED the 3 Suns Parrot Joy toy 💜 and I hear you about Sunny! After what he’s been though it has to be nerve wracking every time he even looks at his wing feathers!

Wow, he looks so much better! You guys are just amazing. I'm sure the shelter is well aware that he needs a very experienced forever-partner... I wonder if this is the first peace he's ever had. Best wishes to all of you.

Sunny looks great! And I am excited for your exclusive toys - I am a subscriber for multiple boxes. My birds really loved destroying the Parrot Joy toys this month. Cannot wait to see what we get next month and the month after that!

Love the new logo....and Sunny looks so healthy. Far cry than when you guys first got him. Just curious......who is his person? He seems to really like Dave.......but loves when you secure his feet and take him to training session or playtime perch with new toy, etc. He seems to enjoy taking it all in. His life is so much better!

That’s looks awesome!
