Enrichment isn't a luxury, it's a necessity! Enrichment can include things to engage your parrot's mind and sense of curiousity like toys (bird-safe items they can shred or chew) and activities to encourage behaviours they'd display in the wild, like foraging for food items.
Popular Toy Categories:
Purpose: beak exercise
Encourages: chewing, shredding, natural wear of the beak
Examples: soft woods (balsa, pine, yucca), palm leaves, vine balls, cardboard
Purpose: mental stimulation through “working” for food
Encourages: problem solving and natural feeding behaviour
Examples: paper-wrapped treats, puzzle boxes, trays with treats hidden in a substrate (i.e. hay, crinkle paper)
Purpose: active play & curiosity
Encourages: exploration, movement, engagement
Examples: bells, beads, rings, plastic shapes & moving parts
Other items your parrot may find enjoyable can include shredding or preening toys such as paper, raffia, coconut husk, and seagrass mats; and climbing or exercise toys such as boings, swings, cargo nets and rope ladders. You should aim to have several toys (min. two or three) in each of the categories above that you can rotate through your cage on a weekly basis to keep your parrot entertained.
Things to be Avoided:
Things to steer clear of include fleece (some parrots will ingest it and end up with a blockage) or toys with threads that may wrap around necks or toes, as well as anything that can encourage territorial or nesting behaviour (e.g. coconut huts).
It can be tempting to order parrot toys off of websites like Amazon, however, there's always a risk that the items you're receiving are manufactured using parts or metals that are not safe for parrots. You're much better off purchasing from reputable pet stores instead.
