Bird Kabob Yucca Parrot Chips

Another of my parakeets favorite destruction toys! Highly recommend!!

I wanted to write a review to provide information I was lacking when I purchased this item. I ordered these along with Wesco Pet Original Bird Kabob Shreddable Bird Toy original size because I wanted to see which would be the most bang for my buck. I wasn't sure how large the bag would be or what would be involved in stringing them to hang in the cage.As to the first matter, the bag contains much more material than the toy about twice as much. The pieces are also larger, ranging from 2"-3" in diameter, whereas the toy discs are about 1-1/2" in diameter. Pieces in this package have a harder shell on the outside of the ring, so it takes a bit more time to shred them.As to the second matter, turns out they are very easy to string. Most of them seemed to have a hole in them already ideal for stringing. For those that did not, these things are VERY porous and come apart almost as easily as Styrofoam packaging peanuts, so a hole can be added using a toothpick, a pencil, or any number of readily available household items.Didn't realize how bored our lovebird was until we put the kabob toy into her cage and she shredded it in a few days. I think these in the package will last a little longer because of the harder shell on the outside. Overall, great product, and it's made of a type of cactus, so no worries about ingesting chemicals.

My bird absolutely loves these and I would normally give this product 5 stars but believe me, trust the current bad reviews. I wouldn’t even give them to the outside birds.I was kind of shocked when I received these. The plastic of the product bag looked dark, was my fi. You can’t tell in the picture though. Opened the bag and noticed the wood was dark in spots and when I cracked one in half a lot of powdery debris from it deteriorating flew all over. It reminded me of something being dusty. This product should not be like this at all.

My birds love these. I bought to make toys with but they are happy just having them as foot toys.

To save money from the pre-made version of the yucca wood chip that my bird mows through like a machine, I buy these bags of yucca chips and string these on the hemp twine that previous toys came on. Once you have the tools: a pick to make a hole in middle of each chip ( I use a barbeque skewer), the twine, and maybe some little wood blocks that are drilled to be spacers (using old toy parts that are still good), I can make this toy for one-third the cost of the ready-made versions. That said, she still only takes a couple of hours to chew ONE of these toys (made with about 5 of the chips plus 5 spacers) and you can make 3 to 4 toys from one package.

I just found these and purchased them to add to my CAG’s homemade toys. His favorite is tearing up cardboard discs that I cut out of clean cardboard and string on rope. I added some of these in the mix and he tore it up. Will be purchasing monthly.

This yucca pieces are too hard for my conure and my kakariki bird. They don't even go near them.

I love these. The amount you get for the price is great. These are not durable at all-- but in a good way! My birds LOVE how soft the wood is. I'm able to push safflower seeds right into it and my guys love shredding them to get the treats. You can add the chunks to make whole toys or just offer them as foot toys for big birds. My sun conure likes chewing on them in my lap while I play on my phone.Just one suggestion for the seller: since these are prone to mold, especially during shipping, can you add a silica gel packet?
