Toys?

[srfjeld]

An avian vet mentioned putting toys in my pen to keep my aggressive chick busy while slowly integrating new chicks. What "toys" do you use?

Any "bird" toy from the pet store would work. Mine enjoy mirrors and anything shiny. I have a toy that looks like a bell with tiny silverware hanging from it and they all enjoy that. I also bought them a little bird ladder to climb on which they enjoyed.

Balls of tinfoil, bells and cat toys such as tiny plastic balls.
