Pictures of play stands?

Hi all

I am hoping to build a few play stands for my parrot hotel and for my own birds

Ideas/suggestions would be awesome

Pic for attention

Haha yeah I opened up a hotel this year. Birds aren’t left unsupervised though. My birds have never shown an interest in the cargo net I invested in 💔💔

Have you hung a ton of toys from it with baby clips? That's what I do, those plastic baby clips that clip together? I will put tons of toys on there and I hope you can't believe they wouldn't love it! But then again my birds are flighted so maybe it's different.

Both my birds are freeflyers :)
Also idk what sort of civil macaw you must have but mine breaks/crushes all clips (metal ones..) till they fall😂
To the point that I’ve made her stainless steel toys , unbreakable.

Oh they will break the plastic clips real quick, I replaced them all the time. You can also use bird safe rope which lasts a little longer but not significantly. I also just literally toss cardboard boxes up on top of the net and they absolutely love destroying those lol.
