These perches are a nice alternative to birds who need variation. The texture is suppossed to help keep the nails trimmed, which is a big plus for me. They are inexpensive. I like having a variety of perches--rope, wooden, etc so we are excited to find these.

Pros: adds texture

Cons: none

these perches are in expensive and they help out with the bird's toe nails and beaks and fit very well in most cages and the shells and minerals come in many beautiful colors...we have purple and blue...

Pros: beautiful, healthy, amazing

Cons: n/a

My conures won't stand on these too much. They will tend to hand on the cage to get to the food. They do that for most of the dishes except for the wooden perches, which they prefer.

Pros: helps keep nails filed

Cons: rough on the feet
