Untreated wood shavings available from most produce merchants in clear plastic bales (one bale would keep your collection going for a couple of years) . . Store in lidded rubbish bins with added coopex powder to keep the cockroaches out

Suitable for all parrots from PC Lorikeets to Macaws . . and I dare say Bush Budgies

BUT . . remember that the only reason that parrots use logs in the bush is that there are no boxes in the bush . .

Boxes have a great many advantages over logs

Totally agree , I love the boxes my other half makes . Easy to clean , easy to see whats going on in them and two of each so swapping over is easy .

I didnt really want logs but we found some and 1 is perfect for the Stanleys and the other is a good size for the Regents , both have naturally long entrance spouts . The other 2, I dare say will just decorate an aviary or two .

We were only on a mission to get fresh branches that day . Will see how they go , they look good .
