Small Pipe Dream

The Pipe Dream is a foraging toy of Kirsty’s own design. They are made in 3 different sizes to suit a range of parrots and the small is best suited to Budgies and Lovebirds. For Cockatiels and similar parrots, please use the Medium (with plastic lids).

Your small parrot just needs to push the plastic lid to the side and reach their beak inside the pipe to retrieve their reward, normally some millet or pellets mixed with some bird safe foraging substrate. When first introducing this toy, you can use a piece of sticky tape to hold one lid open for your bird to learn where to find the food. After they have used it this way for a few days, you can remove the tape and let them pick the lid up themselves.

Cute mini pacifier beads sit gently over the lids, giving your bird something else to play with and they can nibble the cardboard birdy bagels, while waiting for you to next refill their foraging toy.

For Cockatiels and other small parrots, I recommend the medium toy. The Pipe dream is made with bird safe plastic and pvc and all hardware is stainless steel. There is an ‘o’ ring at the top to attach your own hanging link to.
