12mm Acrylic Beads with large hole, 12pk

£1.25

Safe non toxic for added colour and durability for mini and small parrots

If showing out of stock, just check with us before ordering as we normally have these in good supply

These acrylic beads are great for adding a splash of durable colour. Due to large hole size they work well with either paper rope or leather to create new and exciting hanging toys or incorporated into foot toys which will stimulate your Feathered Friends interests. They also offer a cost effective way of revamping existing, tired toys to give them a new lease of life.  

Quantity - This pack contains 12 assorted beads. 

Approx Dimensions -12mm with a 8mm hole.

Materials - Bird safe non toxic acrylic. 

Suitable for - Mini to Small Parrots only.

Caution: Not suitable for Medium to Extra Large beaks which may bite through them.

Chewability - In our opinion, non-toxic acrylic and plastic toy parts are great for adding a splash of colour and a durable element to any bird toy which won't need replacing as often but they work best when combined with soft and hard woods so that there is also something for the beaks to destroy.
Just a thought...
These little beads come in really handy when you are making a toy with wooden shapes that have a slightly larger hole than is required. By adding these to the end you get a really neat finish not to mention a part that won't need replacing as often as the wood.
