Featherland Paradise +E487 CFS Fillable Pet Feeder

Was exactly as described. It's easy to clean and put together. It's held up well with a congo african grey. After about 3 months of use it's still in good shape, just mildly scratched up. She's an avid chewer of wood but does tend to go easy on acrylic. It's a decent foraging toy but would probably work better for a bird that spends a lot of time out on solid flat surfaces or in a hanging version (might try stringing a chain through it later).

Well made toy, screws closed very tightly and feels sturdy. It is larger than I expected though, and the holes are rather large too, so the only treat I've gotten to work so far is (plain) popcorn. Even the largest pellets and almonds I have simply fall out, and I don't like to feed my bird too many nuts anyway. Might hold smaller bits better with some paper stuffed in, so I'm going to try that, but I imagine a lot will still fall out to the floor of his playstand or cage. I'm surprised to see other reviewers mentioning a chain as mine did not come with one; had to pull one from a different toy to hang it. Overall happy with it though and I'm sure we'll get long term use out of it. I have seen pictures of these stuffed with large hunks of veggies and greens too so I'm eager to give that a try.

Our birds all love these. I had originally bought one, to try out, and inserted a steel 'kabob' through it - hanging it in the cage of my male Congo African Grey. He loved it, finding creative ways to remove the contents. I filled it with everything from foot toys and bird 'cookies' to pistachios in the shell along with the paper shreds that you can buy to fill Easter baskets. Both the Greys enjoy pulling out the paper and trying to remove the treats and toys. So for Christmas, I decided everyone should have their own ball, instead of rotating the one from cage to cage. They all love them, and I fill them with different things appropriate for each size of bird. They are incredibly sturdy (we've had the first one in the cage with the Greys for almost a year now). The *only* problem I have had is getting the threads lined up with screwing them back together. But the threads being so fine is part of what makes them hard to unscrew, which keeps a certain clever little female Grey from merely twisting it off for easy access to the goodies instead of working for them the hard way, so that is not necessarily what I would consider a flaw. These are one of the best toy investments I have made so far for our flock. (Each of them gives it two talons up, for a total of twelve!)

Although my cockatiel still hasn’t used it, it looks and works great. Super easy to use too. I like that it’s clear so the bird can see through it.

It is much Bigger than it looks on the picture. This is a good and a bad thing. Good thing is that I can fit fruit, large treats and small toys in here but my African Grey usually prefers her smaller treats so the bad ting is that they fall out of tis toy too easily. My fault though fgor not checking the correct size but this is still a very good toy. If you need a play toy for larger treats small toys this is definitely good quality and I recommend it.

The plastic is durable enough for the macaw not to break, but the treats that I had intended to use, hulled tree nuts, are too small and fall out of the slots. The pellet food I use (Harrisons) also falls out the slots. The foods that wouldn't fall out of the toy would be large pieces of fruits and vegetables, but my birds are like kids, they aren't motivated to work for most fruits and vegetables, so I am still working on that. I like that I can take it apart completely and easily to wash.

I got this for my pet rats to use. It works great for them. There's not a lot of toys for rats, but they like to forage and explore for food as well. Seems sturdy enough, we'll see if they use it for chewing, and how well it stands up to that.

Shasta spend hours trying to get Pistachios out of the ball.
