| Does anyone have a good idea on how to dye wood blocks for your bird? I've heard everything from koolaid to jello, but am "edgy"
Thanks for any info.
Sorry if I missed this topic somewhere.
Thanks for all your help Jules! Hope Jasper is eating his veggies. | |

| i use food coloring and water, as i've heard that flavored things such as the kool-aid or jello may cause the bird to want to eat some of the wood chips...the food coloring does a nice job, just place them in to soak | |

| I prefer just the natural wood to be on the safe side, they all still chew them the same as coloured ones. | |

| That's right. Natural wood would be much better for that.. leave the color.. | |
