It’s a Win Win!
My Cockatiel loves these cuttlebones Birds need cuttlebones for digestion and these are nice and big. They last longer than the smaller ones and he likes to sit on them while he eats it. It’s a win win situation. He has a necessary product and a toy all in one .

Very good for small breeds.
Smaller than expected but for parakeets or finches they are the perfect size.

Bad Cuttlebones
Usually, these cuttlebones are big and thick, worth the $10.00 +. Just opened my last order and it looks like they are the small ones, skinny and thin. The metal holder won’t even hold them. I’m very disappointed. I buy the more expensive ones because I expect quality. Nothing good to say about this order. Should have opened them sooner, I would have returned them. Be careful, of these. Check them as soon as you get them. No stars!!

Over priced and under sized
Bought these based on the high reviews, but was shocked when they arrived.These things are as thin as a sheet of paper.They’re the length that was described, but if you have birds bigger than a finch, they won’t last a day.I don’t recommend them as they’re overpriced and under sized.

TodavÃa no veo resultados positivos
Ya los tengo varios dÃas pero hasta ahora no han podido picar ninguno , demasiado duros para canarios.

Treat that Works
These are a great size. Our parakeets loved them.

Perfect!
All Cuttlebones came in One piece. None were broken, which is a good thing. I’m always afraid they will come chipped or in half because of rough shipping. All was well this time, again.

THESE CUTTLEBONES ARE LARGE, CLEAN AND FAR AND AWAY THE BEST CUTTLEBONES AVAILABLE ON THE MARKET
My parakeets LOVE these cuttlebones. Unlike any of the other one’s I’ve bought since I rescued them in October, 2021…these are CLEAN AND WHITE. They actually have some substance, unlike the other ones.They previous one’s I’ve used don’t last. And, both of the birds LOVE these cuttlebones. You can hear the darker blue one gnawing away at the cuttlebone from two rooms away. The pale blue bird lets his/her roommate do the work. ‘Perry” just eats the white dust that accumulates in the bottom of the Cuttlebone Holder. Teamwork!Don’t waste your money on anything other than these cuttlebones. They are the best.(My only problem with this product. They come with those awful metal clamps that injure parakeets delicate tiny feet and their developing beaks. No one in their right mind uses those metal holders of the past. They should have remained in the past along with ‘gravel paper’.)
