Haha, nice one.

I got a ladder for Nibbler but she never uses it. Hopefully the new one will, but using it outside the cage like you have is a good idea.

It always takes Budgies a long time to get use to new toys!! I try not to overcrowd the inside of my cage!

I try to keep the center of nibblers cage clear so she can fly back and forth.

There are some toys and perches which for some reason she won't go near.

I'll try removing as much as possible without leaving her nothing to do!

Do you have any techniques to get them to use new toys or perches?

Budgies are soooo silly  ::) they have different rules about whether they find somethign acceptable or not! Seems to me they often only want something because someone else has it :P
I find the higher you put a toy in the cage, the more likely they are to use it :) (hard with a ladder i know, can you run the ladder off of a perch?)

hahaha timmy is cheeky, flying right at you like that josh :P will he land on you?
