FORAGING
SPHERE:
This is an entry-level device for parrots that have limited or no
foraging experience. A 6-inch stainless-steel skewer rod or kabob passes through
a 3-inch clear, hanging sphere with open slots in the bottom half. The bell
on the bottom of the sphere will attract the attention of a novice forager,
which may be drawn to it as a toy.
To fill the sphere, hold it in one hand and
turn the rod counterclockwise, remove the top half, fill it with the food of
your choice, and twist the rod back into place. Extruded pellets, dehydrated or
fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, shelled nuts, and millet spray all are excellent
fill items. You also might pass the stainless-steel kabob through a piece of
fresh fruit or vegetable prior to reassembling to make a tempting lure.
