Ole’ Junior Yucca Chew by Bird Kabob

The Ole’ Junior toy by Bird Kabob is made with a really big stalk of yucca. It has much of the hard, outer shell of the stalk on the outside, but with holes cut out to get your bird started on the chewing joy that is yucca. Yucca is a type of plant and these pieces of the dried stalk are extra enjoyable for your bird to chew. As a natural item, each toy will vary slightly and may have areas of changed colour or texture. It is normal for these toys to have some evidence of previous borer activity. The stalks have been kiln dried and have no active insects.

The Ole’ Junior measures a total of roughly 35cm long and the yucca log itself is 17 to 18cm long and 5 to 6cm in diameter. It does not come with a hanging link, which you can select from the drop down menu or choose “no thanks” if you already have spares. The Ole’ is also available in the larger Senior size and both sizes can be seen together in the images.

The sisal rope that holds this toy together is tied in a knot at the top to create a loop. I typically (but not always) untie and change the knot style for a safer design, as per the final picture. Please check all toys and supervise your bird when using the toy. Yucca is also known as ‘yukka’ and is suitable for rodents who love to munch at the soft fibres too!
