I bought the pretty, colourfull ladder thinking it would be more "fun" for them. It is turning them PINK!!! I am going tomorrow to buy a new non coloured one.

Is there a safe way I can take the colour out of this one?

I had the same problem with my playgym its coloured and when you go to clean it the colour run's I just took the whole gym ran it under super hot water till it stopped bleeding and that seemed to work for me ;)

I was gonna say if it's wooden you could boil it.

It is wooden. I tried scrubbing it in hot water. The colour didn't even come off then. :confused: LOL

The colour will not totally come off but the bleeding should stop

It wasn't bleeding either. The colour only comes off on the birds. The ladder is possessed :eek:

lol poor pink baby. i can't see how i wouldn't come off it washed it but yet come off on the birds. The dye itself shouldn't hurt them. Yes it will turn them a different color and they make look silly.

I've had a dyed play stand for ages. i've only ever seen the color run when it got wet. My budgies are always rubbing their heads over it.
