Today we received a great note from a customer complementing our products and service. But the true hero is Kelly who just rescued a Mealy Amazon from poor care. People who open their hearts and homes to birds in need are amazing. Here is Kelly's note.
Is it possible to improve on the natural wooden perch? We think so. We have added patented pumice technology to Manzanita perches to offer all the benefits of wood and cement perches. Now birds can have extra safety and nail health benefits of a textured grip in a natural wood perch.
I purchased the large purple perch for my African Grey three weeks ago, but he won’t use it. I introduced it gradually, both outside and inside the cage, but he continues to avoid stepping on it. He may simply not like the color. Hopefully once he does use it, I will be able to tell if it helps with trimming his nails.
I purchased the small perch for my cockatiel, 3 weeks ago, and he’s taken to it right away. He even nibbles on it here and there. I picked the yellow one, which is really cute. I haven’t seen a difference in his nails yet, but I’m guessing it might take a little while. Hopefully.
