Excellent start for introducing the idea and supplying ideas for creating a foraging environment for your parrot. Parrots forage daily in the wild and its our responsibility as owners to provide the necessary enrichment for our FIDS (Feathered Kids). Parrots are smart (I swear sometimes smarter than I am) and they need puzzles and toys to keep them busy and entertained. Also it allows for the parrot to MOVE, instead of becoming perch potatoes and getting obese because their heads are always in a food bowl. Its much healthier to use their heads and feet to look for and figure out how to get food ... just as they would in the wild.
