Perch can be used for more than just showers, as you can see I put it on the sliding rear door of my house so my bird could have a better view outside! It has a grit covering for better grip - and filing/smoothing out your bird’s nails and beak while it perches! My small bird only landed on this once or twice, so there is no damage. Ideal for medium to large birds, but my small bird was able to perch on it as well. Eye hook on the end of the perch to attach toys, treats, swings, whatever your feathered friend loves the most! I also have a set of three grit smoothing cage perches for sale - will sell individually as well - if you’re interested! Any questions, feel free to ask! Thank you for looking!
