If I may suggest a toy that I make/sell:

http://parrotwizard.com/Popsicle_Cluster
http://parrotwizard.com/Popsicle_Ladder

My birds love these. They are easy to break and repetitive so it is a good introduction for a bird learning how to play. My Senegal Parrot doesn't play too much with toys but when I give her stuff like these toys, I always find them destroyed within a week so I know she's chewing them up.

I do have a couple of those! except theyre made with popsicle sticks,playing cards,puzzle pieces,and wood blocks. my conure is a big chewer and loves to destroy things so it lasted 3 days (it was a smaller one than the one in video)

THINGS FOR WINGS!!! Danita has FANTASTIC prices. and join her facebook for autions!
Great discounts on toy parts and toys themselves!!!
Also My Safe Bird Store, I think their to part prices are cheap and great such as mini birdie bagels, 100 for I think $6!!!!
Their toys are good too, but Things for Wings are cheaper I think.
And also Crystal's bird toys are FANTASTIC prices!!! I LOVE that shop shame I can't buy from there since Australia is very tight on what they let in, and most of the things there wouldn't be allowed :roll:
Also Blu's Bird Yoys, have great prices on bird toy parts.
I think making them yourself are cheaper and better as you can add your birds personal likes!!
Thanks a LOAD Rachel =) :sun: :thumbsup:

Yeah, they sell untreated wood, Popsicle sticks and loads of other stuff at any craft shop so toys are pretty easy to make and nice and cheap
