If this is your first time on my site, welcome.  Since 1992, I've been building a line of totally unique and 100% original Bottlebrush stuff both you and your parrot will love.  It can and will change ALL of your lives, however, I need to ask you for something extremely valuable, a few minutes of your time.  

If you're lucky enough to have a happy, well adjusted bird, my Bottlebrush stuff can and will keep it that way.  However, for those of you with behavior problems, my Bottlebrush stuff was designed to help, and it can and will help you get the kind of bird you wanted when you brought your parrot home.  

I'm going to ask you to read 2 pages on my site.  The first page discusses the situation most parrots find themselves in, and the second page provides the foundation for improving your birds day to day life. If, after reading these two pages, my stuff and concepts don't make sense to you, thanks for your time and best of luck in your search.  If my concepts and stuff does make sense to you, welcome.  Together, we can and will change all of your lives.  

The first page is Want to improve your parrots life, try one of my Bottlebrush Parrot Play Gyms.

Generally, parrot owning household falls into 2 basic categories.

Category 1. You have a happy, well adjusted bird that's a pleasure to share your home with. If your in category one, consider yourself very lucky. I assume you want to keep it this way, and nothing will help more than a properly designed play gym.

Category 2. Your bird seems depressed, unhappy, and is becoming more and more disruptive to your home and family. Unfortunately, once this kind of behavior starts, it rarely improves without making some changes, and again, a properly designed play gym can and will dramatically improve the situation.

So, this is what I offer.  If that's something you would like your bird to have, it's up to you.  It's up to you to decide to try one.  My site has a ton of info, maybe too much.  If your willing to spend some time, I'm confident you'll realize what I offer is unique, and your bird deserves to live this kind of lifestyle.  

Let me give you a quick rundown about my gyms.   Basically, they consist of two distinct items, the Trays and the Branch assembly.  

I use a two tray design so your bird can't climb down.  The middle tray acts like a fenced yard.  Your bird can literally climb all over my gyms, and they provide a lot of usable climbing, playing space in a compact area.  I call these Play Gyms because they're designed to encourage your bird to have fun doing stuff free birds naturally do.  Imagine seeing your bird acting like he would were he free in the wild, in a tree!

The basic idea behind my trays is that they basically last forever.  As long as they aren't left outdoors, (need a gym for outdoors, check out my Hanging Gyms),  my trays will never need to be replaced no matter how long you have them, or what kind of birds use them. 

The Trays.  You care about the trays, your bird doesn't.                                                               

1. 3/4" furniture grade plywood, no Melamine or Particle board ever.
2. On top of this plywood, I use Formica in 4 beautiful colors.  Blue, Green and Slate Black marble pattern, or Chestnut Burl Formica.    I use smooth, high gloss Formica for beauty and these are very easy to clean.  
3. 1/8 X 11/2" Aluminum border on the top tray, 1/8 X 3/4" on the bottom tray.  Most gyms use wood, which your bird will destroy in no time.  Aluminum will virtually last forever, and that's the idea here.  
4. Between the two trays, I include a stained and finished pedestal.  These pedestals provide my gyms with stability, and they look great as well.  
5. Casters are standard, and my gyms fit thru standard doors.  

The Branch Assembly.  This is what your birds cares about. 

1. Bottlebrush.  This is the secret ingredient in my play gyms and the reason your bird will LOVE one.  I have a dedicated page about Bottlebrush for more info if you're not familiar with it.  Why Bottlebrush, why you need it, your Parrot needs it, and why it's all I've ever used?
2. Basically, my branch assemblies are designed like a real tree, with branches coming off a main trunk.  This design is natural and intuitive for your bird, and they will literally have a blast running up and down the branches.   My gyms actually have a lot of USABLE perch space.  
3. I stagger all the branches to provide free drop zones so birds rarely poop on lower branches.  About 90% of the poop will hit the tray, not the lower branches.  
4. Staggered branches also provides lots of space for hanging upside down and rambunctious playing.  
5. The branch assembly itself is constructed using Lag Bolts and torqued in place using an Impact Wrench.  No matter how big or how active your bird is, the branch assembly will never come apart.  
6. Lots of screw eyes for hanging toys, etc.  
7. Screw in cups are included.
8. Each of my gyms have a built in toy called the Spinner.  Basically, it's a slice of Bottlebrush that spins, but your bird can't remove it.  It's a psychological bird toy that drives birds NUTS.   And, after the spinner is chewed up, I include two refills.  
9. When I build the branch assembly of each gym, branch size and branch spacing is determined specifically for the bird it's ordered for.  I also give each gym the right FEEL.  I can't say what that is, but I know it when I see it.  In my minds eye, I envision the RIGHT branch, and search my Bottlebrush supply until I find it.  
10. Each and every one of my gyms is hand built by me, I do it all.  I don't ship until it's right, and I'm proud of my work.  In fact, I hand sign, date and number every one of my gyms.  

My gyms are a beautiful piece of parrot furniture both you and your bird will love.  However, it gets even better.

How much do you spend weekly, monthly on chew toys?  Well, the branch assembly on my gyms are basically one big chew toy.  After 1 year, or 2 years, or maybe never, you can replace the branch assembly.  That's right, remove the old set, install the new set, and presto, you have a brand new gym.  Remember, the trays are designed and built to last forever.  And, during this time, you're not spending a dime on chew toys.  Over time, those savings will not only pay for your gym, but it won't take long before your making money.  And, your bird will be happier then you've ever seen him.  You and your bird can't lose.
