Mr Phil is so sweet! He loves me so much it overflows and Ducki gets some
For those who are unaware, we decided to move the Duck Mansion (aka, his cage) out of the TV room and into the library in the hopes of reducing cage aggression and allowing him to get more restful sleep. To compensate for him not having his cage centrally located, Phil promised to make a playgym. With just a few rules and some supplies, he did an excellent job.
Rules:
-food and water dishes must be on top to avoid poo (and must be removable because they are also the dishes for his travel cage)
-best efforts should be made not to put perches under other perches (again with the poo)
-it should be stable enough to sit on the tray (not screwed to the tray) so I can clean it easily
-must incorporate a 'comfy perch' (those rope ones), because Ducki loves them.
-must incorporate perches with different diameters (better for Duck foot health )
Supplies:
-eye hooks
-different sized dowels
-4 plastic ladders
-1 comfy perch
-2 dishes
-stainless steel screws
The result! (action shots in another post)
