To the OP: my chicks get to play with a couple of my parrots toys. They have now been designated chicken toys and don't go back to the parrot. They are plastic toys. One is a plastic puzzle, the other is a stack of plastic chips with a bell. They love that! Once one chick figures out how to ring the bell and not to be scared of it, they all want to ring the bell! It is really funny to watch.
