It also keeps them entertained moving pieces around the ring. Any toy that can hold a bird s attention for the period of time as this toy does is a great toy because it keeps the birds from getting bored. Boredom in birds can lead to feather plucking. I have two other varieties of animals that enjoy this toy. One of these animals is my rat.
Rats love to play with toys and the toys on the pet market for rats are less than spectacular.
Rats need to chew to keep their ever growing teeth wore down. If they don t the teeth will get too long causing serious health concerns. One more of my animals enjoys this toy and I found this out completely by accident. I had all the toys out of the birdcage cleaning the cage. I heard a noise behind me, turned around and my Animal Lovers 6 Large Brass Ring Chew was running across the floor attached to a ferret.
