Keep your African Grey parrot happy and healthy with plenty of parrot toys.
African Grey parrots (Psittacus sp.) are among the smartest parrot species out there. This also means that they're the most likely parrots to suffer from boredom, which can lead to feather plucking, excessive vocalization and other unwanted behaviours. What can you do? No worries! We've got you covered with our wide range of fun African Grey parrot toys that'll keep your parrot entertained for hours on end.
The ideal African Grey parrot toy arsenal should consist of at least a few of each of the following:
- Foraging toys: Parrots naturally spend much of their time foraging. Make feeding time more exciting or keep your bird busy trying to access its favourite African Grey treats inside a foraging ball or other type of puzzle parrot toy.
- Foot toys: African Greys and other larger parrots like to hold their toys with their feet and carry them around, so provide some small colourful items for them to pick up and chew.
- Shredding & chewing toys: Destruction is a natural parrot behaviour and you can help keep them away from your furniture by providing plenty of soft wood and other chew toys for them to unleash their beak on.
- Rattle toys: Parrots do love making noise! Be sure to get some ringing or rattle toys so yours can practice its "musical" abilities.
- DIY toys: Why not get creative and make your own toys with our range of parrot toy making parts?
Don't forget: African Grey parrots can be sensitive to change. Although you should rotate parrot toys on a regular basis to keep them entertained, don't become frustrate if they don't take to a new toy immediately. Leave it up and surround it with some treats to pique your bird's interest.
