On
Sunday at the Open House that we attended at our Vet Clinic, we had
three different people come and ask what we had for toys for doves.
They didn't know they played with toys. I also had an email from a very
good customer of ours thanking us for
the rosy bourke she adopted and said that everything she read said that
rosies were not good toy players, but that Poppy loved her toys. I told
her that breeders often don't know that birds play with toys because
they don't give them toys to play with. ALL birds will play with toys
once they know what they are for. We were able to help these three
individuals find appropriate toys for their doves and will continue to
educate people the fact that birds need a job and toys, or enrichment as
we call it, can be the difference between a healthy, happy bird and a
feather plucked screamer.
