The Caitec Foraging wheel is a favourite with highly active parrots especially Amazons, Caiques, Cockatoos and Macaws as well as the very clever parrots i.e. African Greys, in fact it seems to be enthusiastically enjoyed by most parrots.
The birds must use the knob to turn the cover plate and expose the food items within each chamber.
To release the wheel from the bracket, the caretaker will pull down the latch on the bottom of the bracket, raise the cover plate and unhook at the top. The wheel is then free.
Unscrew the cover plate and fill the chambers, put the cover plate back on, hook the wheel on the top and fold down, secure to the bracket by pressing the bottom latch inward and it will snap closed.
It only takes a few moments and your parrot will be happily engaged for several hours. To encourage a bird to keep working the wheel fill each chamber with a different type of food.
