Welcome to our first DIY video. As much as this is a “how to” video, it’s more a “how we” did stuff. We will cover how we netted our garden for recall training, how we have built aviaries for Mikey and Mia, how to make parrot perches/bird stands for training with bird safe wood, and how we make bird toys, foraging toys what we think the best parrot toys are. Most of the content in this video will relate to not only macaws but other large parrots.

These 4 topics we cover are the most asked questions we receive on a daily basis so figured this may help some people.

A few things
We are not pros at any of this stuff and there are always other options, so far these have worked for us. If you are netting your garden with small birds, make sure the hole spacing is small enough. We feel the aviary we currently have is too small and can’t wait to have more space to build a huge flight aviary. The perches we made can be made out of many different types of stands, we just prefer the t bar lighting stands. For smaller birds, camera tripods and mic stands work well.
