What toys does your Ekkie play with???

Baby has tons of toys. However, he plays never with them. The only thing he really wants to play with is plastic bottles. We call him the Bottle Baby. He can't live without them. Sometimes I play with him and he goes totally nuts...LOL
Now, what toys does your ekkie play with???

Conan is not much for toys. What he really likes are beads he can manipulate with his beak. I string medium size pony beads, multiple colors on thin strips of leather or cotton string and hang them around in his cage and he is content for hours on end just turning them in his beak. He has never broke one or tried to eat one, just manipulates them:)

As for satisfying his need to chew....well I give him colored blocks of wood on leather stings and that need is met. Sometimes I do catch him chewing on things he's not suppose to be chewing on such as the mantle:ohmy: but he is really not a big chewer.

He can be entertained shortly with paper he can shredd, but that doesn't really keep his attention for very long.

I also string greens through his cage bars and hand food on stainless steel skewers in his cage and he really likes that because its fun plus he gets a treat;)

I don't have an Ekkie, but Bucc my CAG plays with an old plastic chain that he's had forever. It is slowly getting smaller and smaller but he loves it.
