Parrot Perches

Parrots are the sweetest pet animals that one can keep in their homes. They would love to hang on the branches rather than the normal cages which try to imprison them. The parrot perches are made of different materials like plastic, wood and metal. Manzanita is a type of wood that is rated as the sixth hardest wood all over the world.
Besides satisfying the parrot’s need to chew and gnaw, the sandblasted Manzanita parrot stands are a wonderful source of exercise to the parrots. These kinds of parrot perches have natural curves and bumps. The elegant texture of these stands makes it easy for the parrots to climb and play. This stand is very useful for different parrot types like Macaws, Congo African grey and umbrella cockatoo.
There are four different types of perches available for the parrots which are useful for strengthening their feet and create a natural environment for them. They are Rope perches, natural hardwood cholla perches, nail trimming cement perches and edible perches. The rope perch is very soft and bendable through which you can make different shapes for your bird to move around.
The natural hardwood cholla perches are natural and hence provide the environment which gives strength to the leg muscles thus helping the bird build up the feet. Nail trimming cement perches help the birds trim the nails so that they will not have long nails, which often get caught and hurt the bird while they try to get the nail out.
The edible perches are the type of parrot perches made of calcium and bee pollen. This way the birds can eat the perch and get lot of nutrients too.
