This is a product all Amazon owners need unless they keep their birds in a climate controled room. The correct temperature is crucial to their health. This perch does the trick altho we still use a ceramic heating unit also. Birds love the heating perch, a two thumbs up!!

I had no idea how much my conure needed one of these. I bought it and she was on it instantly. She even slept on it, and she is really picky about where she sleeps. She ALWAYS sleeps in her fuzzy tent. But she slept outside of the tent just to be on this perch. I have now positioned the tent so she can still lean on the fuzzy tent while still perching on the thermal perch. She is one happy little girl now!
She wouldn't just use it for fun, so I know she must have needed it.
Now her little feet are always warm and she seems so content
This is an incredible product...just wonderful.
My daughter just ordered one for her parrotlet. I hope her parrotlet takes to it like my conure did.
I HIGHLY recommend this product.

My birds, like many birds, at first hated this new item in their cage. They also did not like the texture as it is slippery even with the slight grooves in the plastic. I covered one with a sheet of very fine grit sandpaper (just tapped it in place like a little sleeve that slipped over the perch) for the smaller bird and he took to it. We then took the sandpaper off and he seems fine on it, I think he just needed to adjust his grip. DO NOT PLUG IT IN WITH THE SANDPAPER ON IT! It was to just get him to try it out without falling off!

For the African Grey we put the perch just under one of her other perches for a few days then moved it sightly next to the original perch so she could get use to it being in her space. Birds I swear, everything new is some kind of threat!

Both birds seem to have taken to them and sit on them at night and on cold rainy days. They have several perches so they can choose when to sit on the hot seat and when to use one of their other perches.

I made sure to put these new perches in their favorite perching place to encourage them trying them out and having their favorite view of the world.

I would suggest this product to anyone who is concerned with the warmth of their birds. Do not give up on this perch if your bird turns their beak up at it, just hang in there and they will figure out that you, the wonderful spoiling bird owner are gifting them with something wonderful, not trying to freak them out!

I am happy this product is available to us as our home is drafty and now our birds have a hot seat and are warm, healthy and happy!

I'd give it 5 stars if the perch was a little less slick ;)

buy this! it is wonderful and so well contructed that no bird can distroy it. my umbrella cockatoo hates new perches so i was nervous about getting it but when it arrived, i let him watch me put this in his cage and i let it heat up then i put him on it and he loved it. you could tell he felt the heat and within 5 minutes you would have thought this had always been in his cage. i have never wrote a review before but when i see how content my bird is i want to share it. buy it and make your bird happy too.

My African grey parrot loves his heated perch! When it gets chilly, he always goes on it and when I take him off his feet are nice and warm. I had a great customer experience with Dawn at K&H, who assisted me in ordering a new AC adapter when I lost my first one. I highly recommend this product and the company itself. The perch doesn't get too warm, but enough to keep a bird comfortable. I put a sock over the perch so that my parrot has more grip. It also saves a lot of money on the heating bill (not having to heat an entire room).

My African Gray Parrot loves this thing. He took a liking to it within 15 minutes of putting it in the cage. He stayed on it all night. Every time I turn it on he will eventually move to it, if it is cold enough. What more can I say, it works!!!!

I purchased 2 of these heated perches and my African Gray George and my Umbrella Cockatoo Spankie were delighted. I was concerned at first because I didn't know if my birds would try to eat the electrical conduit. But I have discovered much to my delight even when out of their cages both birds just ignore it. They love the warmth it provides all day long and most especially at night. This one is a winner!

We get about 8 months of cold weather and this purch is just what our bird needed. She was a little afraid for a couple of days, now she loves it.

A must have, My Goffin's cockatoo is a recovering picker and is fluffy but has no mature feathers. She sleeps on her heated perch every night and took to it the day I put it in. (Even though a REPLACEMENT toy takes a month to get in to her cage!!)I was concerned about the level of heat but she spends quite a bit of the day on it, I'm letting her be the judge. I'm getting one for the amazon right now! I think it is important that they be able to warm up when they need to and Molly's is well used - over a year now!!

I wish I'd had one of these about 9 years ago. We live only 200 miles south of Montreal, Canada, so it gets pretty chilly here. My African Grey's cage metal feels cool to the touch some mornings and since I've installed this perch, I will find him hunkered down on the tip of it where it is warmer. We travel in our motorhome as late as mid October and usually head to Maine. This perch goes with us. It is VERY durable with a decent length cord. The bird cannot get to the metal-wrapped portion of the cord from inside his cage, so it is very safe. And that says a lot when talking about an African Grey! My opinion is that this is very well thought out and worth every penny. Your bird will love you for the gentle warmth under his toes for years to come.
