A really great treat of a toy for large parrots or cockatoos.
Nearly all Australian cockatoos & parrots go ape when you put one of these in their cage. They’re made from the nuts of two of the most popular parrot & cockatoo roosting trees in outback Australia where those birds hang out. With few exceptions all Australian parrots and cockatoos eat the seeds from these two nuts
The nuts from this tree are large and very hard. Australian cockatoos and parrots love to crack them open to get at the seeds inside. We collect and sun-dry them in the harsh South Australian deserts where many different species of cockatoos, parrots, rosellas & lorikeets live. The sun-drying process hardens them so your bird won’t go through them too quickly. By the time they’re dry the seeds have dropped out but the aroma is still there and the birds are attracted by it. They’ll keep your birds amused for a long time. Many Australian parrots spend a good deal of their lives visiting Illyarie trees.
The seeds inside the mace -shaped nuts of the Yate tree are a favourite food of many cockatoo species, especially the red tailed black. They are also enjoyed by almost any Australian big bird with a parrot-like beak. Our sun-drying process hardens them so your bird won’t go through them too quickly. Most of the seeds drop out when we dry them leaving the aroma behind and that’s what attracts cockatoos & parrots to them. As you can see, they’re spiky & difficult for birds beaks to get at. That’s what keeps your bird amused for so long.
