Review on 🐦 Bonka Bird Toys: Enriching Foraging Star - Vibrant Vine Paper Hangings for Parrot, Parrotlet, Quaker, and Cockatiel by Phanikumar Larsen

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Potentially unsafe for Conure-sized Grays; Goes perfectly with cockatiels

The only thing I don't like about this toy is the imprecise description ("FORAGING STAR BIRD TOY, parrot cage, toys, cages, choppers, cockatiel, African Grey"). The toy is described as suitable for a Gray African and was slightly smaller than intended. The biggest concern, however, is the attached call. It was too small, fragile and actually dangerous for my Timne and Congo Grays (and possibly kennel and other parrots of the same size). This is a hazard for parrots of this size as their strong beaks can easily loosen the metal clip in the bell and remove the metal button. This piece of metal is small enough to potentially get stuck in the beak of a gray or kennel-sized parrot and potentially snag on crops and cause serious injury. The small balls on the top/bottom of the toy can also be easily broken into small, sharp pieces by Gray's beak, creating another choking hazard. These small beads indicate that the toy is not suitable for birds larger than cockatiels. This is a great feeding toy but only suitable for cockatiel sized birds/beaks. Revain handles returns very well, which is why it's back today. I have already ordered another BIG STEP SHREDDER BIRD TOY from the same seller (my grays love it).
