welcome to my pionus page! as you may notice, things have changed a bit around here. i used to have two pionus. cricket was my first pionus. after almost four and a half years, he has moved on to a new home in arizona. you can read his story in his link. meanwhile, we still have ernie, who is now almost five years old. you can learn more about him in his link, and see tons of pictures like this one, of him being a monkey because i used to have two pi, and because i still have ernie, i've kept this page - there's a lot of good links here to pictures of pionus, more information on the species, old pictures of ernie and cricket together, and links to other people brave enough to have more than one pionus ;] plus the toy links here are still my favorites, and the resources are the best i've found. so have fun! ~ adrienne and ernie |
here are a couple links to pictures of my two pionus and their friends:
TOYS
there are many toy companies out there, and many people have their preferences. these are the companies that make toys that my boys like the best. keep in mind that every bird has different preferences, so experiment a lot at first to find out what your pionus likes. one of my pi likes 'tiel sized toys, and the other likes amazon sized toys so all bets are off. try leather, plastic (beads, chain, etc), hard wood and soft wood (pine is a big hit with both of mine). try large, medium and small toys. your pionus will tell you what s/he likes if you keep trying things.

1. the number one hit with most pi i have ever met is a company that FINALLY (4/16/2011) has a web site!! order any of their soft pine toys, to try. the "nutlettos" are a big hit with just about every bird i've ever met. |
2. other online sites. these are a few of my favorite online sites. i have found them to have good prices, good variety, and great service:

those are my absolute favorites. and they all have fantastic prices, so check them out! please remember that i am not paid by these companies at all, and can only speak for my personal experiences with them. these four companies have always been excellent to me |
