Crocks

Post by rcirmele » Sun Aug 31, 2014 8:51 pm

I don't know if this is the right forum for this. Anyway, I used to buy these crocks from Windy City Parrot (when I lived there), but they don't carry them anymore. Anyone know where I can get some? I really like the size.

I bought cat stainless steel dishes about that size at PetSmart.
Here is a link for ceramic dishes, about 4-5 inches wide.

Deborah,
Are they heavy enough to stay in place? I've got some fat Gouldians.

Here is the link for the ones I bought. Yes, they are heavy enough. It was Petco, not PetSmart. You can order them online.

I got similar size of cat ceramic dishes from Dollar Tree but they are in white color with some patterns. I also got some very nice but cheap rectangular and square shaped ceramic food dishes (pure white color) from Walgreens. All of them are perfect for gouldians and other finches and very easy to clean. :mrgreen:
I love Gouldian Finches.

Walgreens, really? That is right down the street from my house. I'll have to take a look there.

Yes, I got them from Walgreens. You will not find them in pets section. Just go to section where they have some kitchen stuff. :D
I think I got each dish for $1.50 or $2.00 from Walgreens
I love Gouldian Finches.
