Product Information
Full details
The Happy Pet Nature First Coco Reel Tower is designed for owners of medium to large parrots who want to provide natural, durable enrichment for their pets. Its primary benefit is promoting healthy beak maintenance through shredding and chewing, though potential buyers should be aware that the natural wood components are intended to be destroyed over time and will require periodic replacement.

FAQs
Is this toy safe if my bird swallows small pieces?
The toy is made of natural materials designed for shredding. However, always supervise your pet and remove any pieces that have been chewed into very small, potentially ingestible fragments.
Can I wash the Coco Reel Tower?
It is not recommended to submerge the toy in water as the wood may swell or harbor mold. Spot clean with a dry brush to remove debris.
Is the metal clasp safe?
Yes, the clasp is designed for avian use, but ensure it is kept closed tightly to prevent your bird from getting their beak or claws stuck.
How long will the toy last?
Longevity depends entirely on your bird's chewing intensity. It is meant to be a consumable item.
Are the colors toxic?
The Nature First range focuses on natural materials, but as colors vary, ensure you inspect the toy for any abnormal odors or residues before the first use.
Troubleshooting
My bird is ignoring the toy.
Try attaching a small piece of millet or a favorite treat to one of the bamboo poles to encourage initial interest.
The toy is swinging too much.
Secure the bottom of the tower to the base of the cage with a piece of untreated sisal rope to stabilize it.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward: simply use the provided metal clasp to attach the top of the tower to the ceiling or a sturdy cross-bar of your bird's cage. Ensure that the tower hangs freely so the bird can maneuver around it. Compatibility is best with medium to large parrot species, such as African Greys, Amazons, or smaller Cockatoos. To care for the toy, regularly inspect it for any sharp splintered edges that might need a quick sanding, and discard the product once the structural integrity is compromised or the parts become too small, posing a potential ingestion hazard.
