Playstands
Good news - I posted awhile back about rehoming my Moluccan because my future housemates wouldn't agree to her. Things have changed and it looks like she'll be able to stay with us on a trial basis. Hurray!
So anyway. I'm looking for playstand recommendations for my three birds - the Moluccan, a severe macaw, and a sun conure. All three of them are really good about new things and the only phobia we're dealing with is the macaw's fear of skinny pointy things (like pencils or straws), so I don't think that'll be an issue.
I'm planning to buy two or three stands: two "fancy" stands - a giant one for the 'too and a smaller one for the macaw and conure; and possibly a third basic perch.
My criteria for the fancy ones: easy to clean, hold food and water dishes, several toy mounts (or easy to hook toys too), on wheels, preferably interchangeable perches or a variety of perch styles but that's not a deal-breaker. Must be standalone, can't hook to the wall or ceiling.
I'm leaning toward stands like this and this. Maybe one of each?
For the basic, again on wheels (or tabletop and lightweight) and easy to clean. Something like this maybe. This will be primarily for the small birds.
All told I'm trying to spend no more than $700. Obviously the one for the cockatoo needs to be very sturdy. All three of them are chewers.
Suggestions? Stuff to watch out for? Thanks!
