Yes, it is suitable for African Greys, Amazons, Parakeets, Cockatoos, Cockatiels, Conures, Budgies, Lovebirds, and Cockatoos, Cockatiels, Conures, Budgies, and Lovebirds. Canaries are small birds that are found in the Caribbean. This parrot toy with a bird mirror is made for medium to large birds.
My sun conure is 11" long from top of head to tail end, and the mirror is the perfect size for her. She sits in front of it, chewing a long toy beside the mirror, watching herself. It would be too small for your macaw if he or she is much larger, which was my problem in finding a mirror for my bird--every mirror I ordered was too small (I believe most are made for parakeets) until I ordered this one.
In my neighborhood, there is a pet store that specializes in and sells everything related to birds, including birds. I'd recommend checking out a similar pet store. Everything is available where I shop. If you don't have that option and are handy, snip off the old and cloth and re-use it. Wrap your own cloth strips or similar fabric around the perch that is already in place. This item is extremely well constructed. I doubt you'll need to replace it for a long time, but I only have two parakeets who use it. I hope you found this information to be useful.
Selected User Reviews For Colorday Large Stainless Steel Bird Mirror
If not, my bird will figure out a way to get it down! My bird will be able to knock it off with only two slip over the bar rounded hooks on top! br>br>I bought the LARGE for my African Gray parrot only to discover when it arrived that it's designed for a small barred cage if you want it secure! There is no way to secure the bottom half of this to my cage, as shown in the photos! br>br>Large birds require large cages with bars that are wider and thicker than those found in small bird cages. This is a design blunder on the part of this company! This mirror only has one function: it slides onto the bar at the top. There are no screws or a latch to speak of. Is it possible for me to use industrial pliers to squeeze the top rounded hooks to the cage? Maybe. But even if that worked, I'd be stuck in a position where I couldn't move or easily remove it for cleaning, so I'm not going to try. VERY dissatisfied! br>br> This isn't meant for big birds! It's also quite large. Please be aware: This manufacturer needs to increase the length of the screw treads on the rope portions and include extra large washers to enable this mirror to be secured on all four corners! If you have multiple large birds in one cage and this gets knocked off and hits them, you will most likely have a dead bird! Because different cage bars are spaced differently, it also requires two or three hole settings rather than just one. Because the metal post for the perch on my Hahns Macw cage collides with the bar, this won't lay flat! The upper hooks don't touch the bar when I lift up to make the mirror lay flat (as shown in the photos). As a result, be aware that without modification, this might not fit. br>br>For smaller birds, I wouldn't be concerned because this mirror is heavy and unlikely to be knocked down by a small bird. However, if you have a clever medium to large bird, I would not recommend using it as is! br>br>I'm going to try to find bigger washers and see if they'll fit in my Grays cage.
Stainless steel that is well-made, thick, and well-polished produces excellent full-color reflections! It appears that this is his new favorite perch! For what you're getting, this is a fantastic price!.
The 7" size is perfect for my sun conure, who has had it in her cage for two days and loves it. She can now see herself, which she couldn't do before because of the smaller mirrors. She spends a lot of time examining herself in the mirror.
My African Gray chewed up the little perch in a day and then dismantled it from the mirror, despite the fact that the product shows an African Gray on it. It may be appropriate for smaller parrots, but it is no longer appropriate for any African Gray or Macaw.
The mirror is held in place by hooks on the top of the cage, but this is a passive hanging situation. The mirror will slide along the cage unless you secure it with your own modifications. Although not very safe and certainly not travel cage friendly, it is a worthwhile source of entertainment for cockatiels. My bird is already chewing on the sides, so I'm hoping it's all stainless steel.
" The rope is the perfect size for his tiny feet. He is a mirror aficionado. It's of decent quality, and the mirror was wrapped in a peel-off plastic wrap. It arrived in a flash! One minor criticism is that I believe it is overpriced for what it is, but then again, bird toys are usually overpriced. I can't put a value on my son's happiness. to be entertained So yes, I would definitely recommend this to anyone with a bird who enjoys rope toys. mirrors!.
This mirror is very popular with my IRN, but it has two flaws: A gap between the stainless steel and horizontal cage bars is created by the two hooks at the top of the mirror. This caused him to get his feet stuck on several occasions, and he was unable to free himself. The washers that come with it are insufficient to safely secure it to the cage. I used vise-grips to modify mine by sharply bending the hooks where they protrude from the mirror finish and tightening the loop to eliminate the gap between the mirror and the bars. Then, in addition to the provided washers, a set of larger diameter washers and a set of lock washers keep everything in place. Also, inspect the rope perch on a regular basis for loosened thread loops where their legs could become entangled.
It's a good size, and I use mirrors when we go on vacation because no one else can hold your bird as well as you can. If you have the opportunity, adopt a bird! We do! This mirror is absolutely stunning.
