Other Cheap DIY Foraging toys are:
-Crumble paper into a ball and put your birds' favorite treat inside so they have to dig it out.
-Put treats inside a toilet paper roll and put shredded papers inside too. (If your bird is inexperienced you can cut the tube in half to make it easier for them to reach)
-Fold paper over and over to make a shape and put seeds in the fold or holes. (You can search up how to make how to make paper stars for ex.)
-You can tie straws together (preferably paper) and put seeds and shredded paper inside.
hey just a question i’m trying to make some of these for my budgie i was wondering if i have to hang the toilet paper one?
@@adrianasevilla5829 no its rly up to u
Shmagoogle Agoogle took a pic of this comment 👌
Hey this really helped me I screenshoted it!!!!
That is from folk talk rigth
Ooh! I should probably try this! My birds need to become smarter first! 😬
To help them figure it out you can show them as you’re putting the treats in!
Lol
XD
Nusaibah Nawal Why did you copy and paste my comment lol-
@@eshanimahajan6856 lol
Obsessed! I'm basically a bird owner on a budget, so diy toys are definitely the go to. I love your ideas for foraging toys. Definitely going to make these!
I've been doing research on birds and stuff for the past few days and I feel like some of the websites dont always give reliable info but I trust these videos a lot more and they've helped me learn a lot since I'm going to be getting two cockatiels soon!
I’m really nervous about getting a birddd ahhh any tips?
@@emilee_3721 expect lots of screaming 😬 I got my bird last month and shes a demon lmao
Same here, I have been doing plenty of research but these videos are my primary source
@@Croissant_c they're angels
@@emilee_3721 get a big cage
Get partner for bird 🐦
Get seeds
Toys
Put the cage where you spend lot of time in ( in your room? )
Males are really active females are calm
Andddd......
That's all I know and don't give the food you eat to birds ( junkies)
I love the foraging food bowl/tray! I do that for Louie and Loki and they both love it! Also, you passed 1k! Congratulations!!!
That’s awesome! Thanks so much!!
Live Laugh Birds 😀
Ducky is so cute
I don't have birds of my own, but I love watching yours!
When you don’t have a bird but you still watch her videos cause there Aswome❤️❤️
Partially this but also because I want to get a bird when I move out :)
Getting one
Elle: I like to add crinkle paper to the ends of it so they have to work harder
Pearl: i'll just bite through the finger tap where the milet is
I’m going to use these toys
That’s awesome! Let me know how it goes!
Ok I will
Unfortunately I have a very hormonal budgie who will automatically nest WITH ANYTHING fluffy in a bowl or flat surface. My birds have there own really weird looking toys I make them...trust be they ain’t winning a toy beauty pageant...hence I usually buy a lot of puzzle toys. As soon as my bird room is set up then I’ll be working on filming. Do you like the cargo nets you have, I read reviews saying it smelled like gasoline 😖.
😂 the birds don’t care about how the toys look, don’t worry lol. Yay I can’t wait for the channel!! I love the cargo net, my birds love it too. It definitely doesn’t smell like gasoline, maybe that was a different one than I have?
Meh, I have a long way to go until I make a channel. I was also going to make it part animation...cause when I’m spilling tea I need it to have some comedic relief in the form of animated birds and my ugly mug 😜
cool, that is so cute, my dad bought my family a like green cheek conure a few days ago, who would aboslutely, dramatically, terrifically LOVE those toys!
I love your foraging ideas! Going to try them. Tico definitely needs to do this! Thank you!❤🐥🐦😄
And congratulations on 1k! You deserve it!💗🎉🥇🤩
Thank you so much! 💜💚 Let me know how Tico likes the foraging toys!

Elle yawned at the last part while saying subscribe
Remember that our birds don’t need expensive toys....But they deserve them!
Great job you gave me some great ideas
I just love birds
Great Video guys! Really enjoyed it! Like From Friends!💚💚💚🍬
Thanks so much!! 💜
I made the foraging tray! I didn’t have crinkle paper, so I took a toy that I couldn’t use bc the birds were chewing on the thing it hanged from, and it had TONS of crinkle paper in it!
OMG CONGRATS ON 1K Thats amazing! Btw great video
Thank you so much!! I can’t believe I have 1K!

I love your channel! I've been binge watching all of your videos! I have two budgies and I'm getting a lovebird soon! Your videos really help me take care of my birds the right way (I even taught one bird to wave).
It was really helpful . I did it with my cockatiel and she was busy for 1 hour thank u so much😀😁
That’s awesome
Thanks for the crinkle paper idea for the foraging box. I've been using wood shavings but I like this better. The finger puzzle idea is great too.
Aww I love these toys the thing I love when I watch your videos especially these videos number 1 Kermit, Ducky and your other birds are in it and help you inform.
I also love them becuase allot of this stuff rabbits and hamsters can also eat great Video and Congratulations on 1K 💕🐰🐹🐦

Congratulations! 🎉
Thanks! ❤️
Hi what a very nice video thanks so much for sharing.you are very knowledgeable about birds so wonderful.all of your birds are cute.have a wonderful evening.
Thanks so much! Happy new year!
@@ElleAndTheBirds you are most welcome.you also have a wonderful new year also.all the best to you and your birds.In 4 months I have to take angel back to the veterinarian because his thyoid test was high so now they want me to give him thyoid medicine every other day,and before it was every day.but I am willing to pay the extra money for my angel,he brings me so much joy he is such a happy bird if angel sees a person upset he will try to make the person Happy.birds are such wonderful pets they allways bring joy into our lives. But at least I found out why my angel was so tired it was because his thyoid was high now he is ok
@ANGEL FRANK I’m so glad Angel is ok. Indeed birds are amazing pets. I love them so much, and I’m so happy to have finally been a part of this amazing community in 2019. I always used to watch bird channels in the past, but I never thought I would be here with my own.
@@ElleAndTheBirds yes glad to see you with the amazing coummity.yes I would do anything for my angel.one time when I took my angel into the super market a guy comes up to me and tries to say that my angel is his bird,I told him that my angel has a mirco chip and he is registered to me as the owner he got scraed and runs away.when we take our birds outside we have to be careful because people always want to take birds.so if I go into the super market I always take another person with me.i guess I am alot like my mom that would do anything for her birds when my mom was alive and we were living at a apartment the apartment caught on fire and I helped my mom get all of her birds out of her apartment,my mom didn't want to leave the apartment with out the birds she was willing to sacrifice her life for birds and I am the same way as my mom was.they bring us so much joy.
Great video I can’t wait to try out some of your ideas!!! Congratulations 🎊🍾 on your 1000 subscribers 💕💕
Thank you so much!! Let me know how it goes!
She has 1k 6months ago and now she’s almost at 60k?!
super cool
All of your videos are interesting
Thankyou for the good idea ,
no problem!
Great Ideas! definitely going to try these fun ideas 💡
Thanks so much!
Lol when my budgies heard the other birds they started chirping :) thx for making these vids they have been so helpful!
congrats on 1k :)
Thanks so much! :)
This is my favourite Chanel . every day l become so excited that when will you make a new video
I love your videos so much
I love your voice too
Im so excited because im getting 2 budgies (not because they are "starter birds" but because i love how energetic and interactive they can be) and I have been doing soooo much research looking for DIY toys so that i have enought money for ladders and things i cant make. Btw if i find two budgies that get along i shall name them KIWI AND BLUEBERRY
I love this channel I’m hope to get a bird but my mom and dad said that maybe I’ll get a hedgehog I’m not sure but I am obsessed with this channel I love it sooooo much ❤️
Aww thank you so much ❤️
I have a hedgehog and recently rescued a baby starling (bird). They are both awesome. Hedgehog gets up when most people are going to or already are in bed. Just make sure you give him a few days to get to know you by associating with comfy nice things for him (Like dried or even live meal worms). Good luck and God bless 😊
Thanks for sharing😊 when I’m looking for a educational video I always come to you😁 I’ll make sure to try make some of these foraging toys for my birds when I get back🤗 these ideas are soo good! Btw, do they actually eat the paper and stuff?🤣 I’ve always wondered this😆
Thank you so much!! No, they don’t eat the paper, they just throw it around and get it everywhere 😂
Live Laugh Birds Lol thanks😆 I could of sworn Stormy ate some once🤣
Mingi luvsbudgies Lol shredding it to a molecular level 😂
CenturianEagle Lmao😂
Lets go for 2k, 2️⃣K
These are great tips!
Thanks so much!
Yay❄️ 1k SUBS ❄️
🎆🎇Congratulations!
Thanks so much!! 💜
This was SO CUTE :O
Love your chanel keep doing it
Thank you so much!
Awesome video! Very informative! I love how your bird is just chilling on your finger during the intro! 😂
Thanks so much! 😂
Dude I want to know how she’s so confident it won’t poop on her😂
Thanks for the video! Very informative and useful 😩 saved this in my bird playlist for when I one day get my lil baby bird 😩🙏🏻✨
Thanks so much! I checked out your playlist and you’ve got all my favorite bird videos! 😂 great job doing your research and I hope you get your bird soon!!
Live Laugh Birds hahaha 😂 I’m thinking either a green cheek conure or a caique so my playlist is mostly of gcc (didn’t look up caiques before as it’s been in my mind only recently), I added ones on other birdies just for extra info and reference in general ~’
Omg satisfying I was the 1100 person to like the video ❤️❤️
Wow..
Hey Elle thank you for making this video I think I have a idea for a DIY forging toy for my birds and I just love your videos
Cool DIY's thx
Edit:thanks for the hart Elle!!!
When Kermit started screeching, Andromeda (my parakeet) looked up and thought there were more birds in the room xD But seriously, tysm for the tips!
Nice video, great ideas
Wow! I really love the treasure chest. Kermit (is it Kermit?) is super cute trying to get the food 😍😍😍 5:05
He is 😍😍 thanks so much!
Should I worry if my bird starts trying to or succeeds in eating some of the paper? I made a foraging toy out of a large piece of paper with my bird's favorite foods inside along with some holes cut into it so he could reach it (it was hanging as well). Some of the food was retrieved but he started nibbling at the paper instead of turning it around to get food on the other side. I started monitoring him whenever I had the ball in the cage but I was wondering if I even had to worry.
I love your channel and I’m actually inspired to do my best to make my budgie happy and healthy, especially since she came from a pet store. In fact, I’m trying to teach my budgie how to forage. If you happen to have any pointers, I would greatly appreciate it. I hope you and your feathered family stay safe. And thank you so much in advance.
YES 1K!! SUBS!! Yos im gonna try this stuff!
Thanks so much!! 😄
@@ElleAndTheBirds np Lol😂
2:34 Ya yeet.
You can give the finger traps as a foot toy to larger birds
