Style Info

Slats - Made to Shred

Made for birds that love putting their beaks to work! The thinner, flat shape provides plenty of edges to bite, strip, and rip apart, while giving birds a satisfying piece of wood to work through. Thicker slats may provide a longer-lasting challenge, while thinner slats can be a better fit for little beaks or birds that prefer easier-to-chew pieces.

Materials & Craftsmanship

  • Pet-Safe Wood - We use kiln-dried pine, fir, spruce or balsa — woods that are perfect for chewing and safe for birds and small animals.
  • Smooth Finish - Lightly sanded to remove splinters and sharp edges.
  • Edible Colors - Hand-colored with human-grade food coloring from a bakery supply shop.
  • Made in the USA - We cut, drill, sand, and color every piece ourselves for consistent quality.
  • Natural Variation - Hand coloring may vary slightly and colors may bleed when wet.
