made a playgym for the hookbills.

For days I have been wanting to do a bird related project. earlier today I spent some time googling playgyms and such....then tonight went for a soda and low and behold...in a free pile I spot a laundry rack! So threw it in the truck and two hours later....a playgym! Gotta love zip-ties, amazing things happen with them. :D I still plan on adding more to it, out of extra stuff for the minute! so if I come up with something better, or until i make something this will do just fine.It even has wheels, I can mve it around and throw some paper under it. next are some flight cages I want to make.
