Sola Cabbage Ball (2 Sizes)

Sola plant is the lightest wood in the world and is even softer than balsa. You can easily dint it with your fingernail. Parrots love chewing at the satisfying texture and tearing chunks out of it. Because they are so light, the balls can be easily held as foot toys by most parrots. You can also put Sola Balls in your birds foraging tray or refillable holder toy (eg Hide n Seek, Buffet Ball or Baffle Cage). Alternatively, you can thread onto stainless steel wire or a refillable skewer to make your own toy. The sola is so soft, that it’s easy to poke a hole with a skewer, screwdriver or similar.

New ‘Cabbage Balls’ are just like the original Sola balls, with a thin outer coating of sola slices. With each thin slice, there is a strip of the ‘bark’ of the sola plant stem, causing the balls to slightly resemble a cabbage.

Check out the videos below (next to the reviews) to see and hear the satisfying crunch of the Sola, which has a similar texture to popcorn. As a natural product each item does vary in size and colour. The ball is made from many thin sola stems, joined together by a short length of thin twine at the center. Supervision is recommended due to the inner thread (see picture).

Sola plant wood is safe for all parrot breeds and a wide range of products are available, from straight Sola Stems, original Small, Regular and Large Sola Balls.
