Parrots love to chew and destroy, what better thing for them to destroy then your trash!?
I make these for my cockatoo and my parents four big birds ( a amazon, two African greys, and a cockatoo.) Sometimes I even volunteer to make some for the local bird rescue.
Little birds love chewing on these too! (cockateils, budgies, and love bird sizes)
All you need is:
-empty toilet paper roll
-scissors
If you wanted to you can hang them up with rope, or just hand them straight to your parrot for them to play with.

Cut 4-5 slices out of the roll with some fairly sharp scissors.
You want them to be about a inch thick. more or less it really doesn't matter
Assemble

Put the slices inside each other until they form a ball.
OPTIONAL: you can put peanuts or other treats in the middle and this will keep your parrot interested for a little while.
(big birds tear through one of these in no time, little birds it takes days)
