I do love that setup! I have heard that those happy huts are not good to have for a bird. Just letting you know in case you didn't.Unless you count the amazing mess! I'm in use getting ready to clean and re arrangements.

There are risks with fabric , ropes , ect, and especially the fuzzy stuff that sheds little synthetic fuzz. What can happen is threads and fabric can build up in crop over time , months , years, a d cause sn impaction. In a very graphic article , with crop discection pictures, and post mortum necropsy they show . Predominantly in this one , it was all the little threads pulled of rope perches , chewed of white cotton preen toys .I do love that setup!

Both of you sets up are gorgeous and fun for parrots!I love yours
The top wood is crepe myrtle from my tree, the bottom wooden perch bought at bird pet store , tho I don't know the wood type. I use weight rated fishing line a lot to suspend stuff..I have not had any issues with my small beak parrots snip it, or with them flying into the ones I use to hang the stuff over the cage . I think I'm at over 11 individuals that have lived with me and this kind of set up.Nice!! I have something like this,

I like it , and need to try one at some point. I have cardboard tube sane stky in the quakers cage . They do slowly chomp and destroy the cardboard, lol,I consider enrichment. But they could enjoy this one while hopefully taking longer to destroy!
I have these and touch wood had no hormonal effects yet remi sleeps in his on and off pip naps in his but sleeps on a perch with a toy on his head

Let me know if you want more pictures.
I have heard that those happy hutsare not good to have for a bird.
The fluffy ones seem to be the worst and is a problem when birds chew on them (even gently). There are some that are made of non pilling fleece which are much safer which could be what pixiebeak has there, I can't see very well.I chose these because they aren't plush , and threads aren't easily pulled off,
Okay! I am glad you are being careful with them!There are risks with fabric , ropes , ect, and especially the fuzzy stuff that sheds little synthetic fuzz. What can happen is threads and fabric can build up in crop over time , months , years, a d cause sn impaction. In a very graphic article , with crop discection pictures, and post mortum necropsy they show . Predominantly in this one , it was all the little threads pulled of rope perches , chewed of white cotton preen toys .
Anyway I chose these because they aren't plush , and threads aren't easily pulled off, I monitor and replace if chewed on ropes or these or anything. Ta-da does t chew these and neither dud my first GCC Burt who had one for her 17 years . The quakers do chew them so I use other option fur them . Phoebe will also chew rope perches when caged, but not when out , so they don't have any rope inside cage .
Conures seem to prefer sleeping flat , a platform per h could also be an option. There are several non fabrics options out there.
As for behavior, Ta-dah has never had hormonal problems, and neither did Burt . We will have to see with Koda. For conures or quakers. Other species differ , as do individuals, and could trigger hormonal issues
I made my birds one as well. I used apple wood.The top wood is crepe myrtle from my tree, the bottom wooden perch bought at bird pet store , tho I don't know the wood type. I use weight rated fishing line a lot to suspend stuff..I have not had any issues with my small beak parrots snip it, or with them flying into the ones I use to hang the stuff over the cage . I think I'm at over 11 individuals that have lived with me and this kind of set up.
