DanaandPod wrote:I want to comment about the sand perch. I have a very large sand perch with the holes/indents around it. I have it placed as the very most bottom perch in the cage with Pod's favorite foraging toy over it with Zupreem fruit flavored pellets (which I use as a treat) and he is only on that perch when toying around with this toy. This way he is moving around on it and ultimately filing his nails. Because it is the bottom most perch,,,it doesn't seem that it is causing any trouble to his feet. He is not on it regularly... Is uppermost perch is the parrot wizard perch and that is the one he uses most.
