Boings

[DarkRaine]

Since I got a new bird cage for Tobi and Tina, I realized that their new home is REALLY empty, so I want to put a boing in there. Buying one from the petstore is a last resort for me because of how overpriced their toys are. So does anybody know how I can make a boing and where to get the materials? For those of you who don't know what a boing is, its a kind of a rope perch in a spiral, with toys hanging in the centre. :budgie::budgie:

Dr. Foster's and Smith is having a big sell and the boings are very reasonable ..between $6.00-$10.00!:) The sell is over some time in early Sept.

I'm not sure how you would make a homemade boing :S It would definitely be a bit difficult, I would think.

The smaller boings for budgies aren't that expensive, ranging anywhere from $5 to $12 :)

Thanks for the quick reply, but where I live, there's no store called Dr. Foster's and Smith.

Dr. Foster's and Smith is an online website where you order your items :)

Oh, thanks for clearing that up softie

I'm pretty sure Dr Fosters and Smith only ships to the USA.

I've seen home made Boings....
I can't find the link though. But here's a link for an atom..
