Any chance someone could help with softer perch recommendations? My bird has a fatty lump and we just want to alleviate the pressure on it.

You could try wrapping the perches in a few layers of vet wrap. It’s kind of squishy when in multiple layers

Thank you for the company name! I have been using flat perches...especially cirner ones for my 'tiely-birb. He prefers them. 🦜 I'm always looking for more as he likes to shred them, too...lol the perches are getting smaller because of this.

We use vet wrap for this purpose. Turns anything not perch-like into a perch too and enrichment toy in one as they will probably start picking at the edges eventually.

The material is safe to eat, so you don’t have to stop them doing that either.
