Has anyone used ware treat-k-bob refills with a parrot?
« on: December 21, 2011, 04:43:46 PM »

This is kind of a strange question, but we have an African Grey parrot that chews on wood toys just like rodents.
The rodent chews are a lot cheaper than whole parrot toys at the pet store. I bought one (Treat-k-bobs refill that will fit onto our existing hanging toys) thinking it was just food dyed pine but found it was fruit flavored as well. Just a little unsure if it's safe for parrots. I'll e-mail ware and see if I can get them to disclose what's in it but I wanted to know if anyone does this with their medium to large parrots.

Thanks,

Chris

I got an e-mail back from Ware. They said it was mixed fruit flavor and kiln dried pine. I suspect it's the same stuff the other parrot toys are made of.
