Parrot Foraging Toy - Creative Seed Rotating Wheel with Food Ball for Small & Medium Parakeets, Cockatiels, and Conures

Faith Vaivai: Didn't expect much from the quality, but just from doing about 4 regular cage cleanings for my rats, this broke. I couldn't secure it to the cage because there are little pieces of plastic that you put the bolt through and tighten it to fasten. Doesn't require much force to break after a few tightenings. Otherwise they loved it! Took them a while to figure it out though.

Victor: A great product but very poorly advertised. You never fill it with food, you put just a little bit in each section and then fill the rest with torn paper or cut cardboard pieces, which keep the food inside (otherwise it will just fall out when you hang the thing) and provide your birdy entertainment to shred :)

On the downside the central "flower" plastic washer piece is no good, my parrot just chewed it off after a couple of weeks. Just any metal washer will suffice as a replacement, I just used one out of the spare part sets of one of my furniture pieces (or whoever knows where from exactly...).

As a potential improvement, having the central screw longer so it can also serve as a single mounting point (and foregoing 2 current mounting screws) would probably be way, way more convenient to use by having less parts to fiddle with and be a cost saving for the manufacturer as a side bonus.

Vanessa: I love this foraging toy for my rats, they got the hang of it quickly! The only thing is that it is hell to wash. Some consider using it for dry treats lol. But very sturdy and useful.

Theres a plastic film on both sides of the rotating piece, took me a while to figure out i had to remove it for it to be transparent

Madison: This is a great wheel, works as intended. BUT as the label on the package says, there is a film covering the front and back of the moving part of the wheel. It looks like it’s foggy and not clear or transparent. I was convinced there was no film and it was made wrongly. There IS a film and it is incredibly hard to see! I gave up one night but the next time I used part of a box cutter and just scraped the edge and it got the film to lift and peel off. Don’t bother trying to use your nails because it won’t work. Just use something to help. Other than that… awesome wheel. Came in great condition and no problems. I wouldn’t suggest filling the compartments too fully or the contents can spill out easily when being turned. Lots of fun though and keeps my rats entertained.

Amazon Customer: For those having a hard time peeling the plastic protector off, just use the tip of a precision knife. Easy peasy.

Sherrie JohnsonSherrie Johnson: The media could not be loaded.  My rat boys love this product! At first they were hesitant to put their little hands in the holes but now they use it like pros!

The only problem I have is that it’s not super easy to put together the screw that holds the clear front panel on is not very long and barely reaches out the other side, let alone when the bead is in place. It makes it very difficult to securely tighten it and it also has started to break the small plastic lip on the back a little. Honestly if that little plastic lip wasn’t there this whole problem would likely go away I’m not sure what it’s purpose is.

Other than that miner flaw it is still perfectly useable and I love having the extra enrichment for my boys! It fits really nicely in the bars of my critter nation cage as well!

Maddy: My rats love this, it is a little tricky to get the food in the toy, but anything for my ratties. Every rat is different so I can’t say all rats will love it but this one did work for me and my rats

Alexis: Got this as a foraging toy for my green cheek conure. A few things posed an issue and I will unfortunately be returning:

1. (most important!) the holes are JUST too small for his head, meaning he tries to shove his head in the holes to retrieve the treats, smushing his eyes and posing a risk of getting stuck. NOT a risk i am willing to take at all. if you have a bird gcc-sized or smaller, do NOT get this version. (NOT THE SELLER'S FAULT! just needs to be made clear the dangers and how important it is to get appropriately-sized toys for your animals!)
2. I got the clear version and it confused him. Kept him busy, which is great, but also frustrated him and he got angry and bitey because of it. He tried to reach the seeds from everywhere but the holes and just got lucky when he happened across a hole.
3. The front bit with the holes has a weird balance issue. The two pockets at the 3 and 9 oclock positions (the ones touching the brackets) were the ones i filled for a test and when setting the holes to either of those spots, the front bit spun, as if the weight was distributed unevenly on the acrylic front with the holes...which makes no sense, since...
