I bought this sisal Tarzan rope for mine. www.northernparrots.com/sisal-tarzan-rope-parrot-toy-medium-prod343226/

I knew they would take time to get used to it (well Mitzi anyway) I put it in the cage and they both slowly went down to the floor and stayed there until I removed it.
It was as if: "Right, there is an alien present, keep calm, if we don't panic we should be able to escape from it okay".

I haven't tried Chyloe with one. Haz

She has trouble with big new toys as well. Thomas

I succeeded in hanging it up in the cage and I put pine nuts on one of the knots, which Mitzi took. Her love of pine nuts was clearly greater than her fear of this new toy.
They have both had their beaks on it.
However, after a while it was clear that neither of them were happy with it being in there so I had to remove it again.
