I bought my baby Milo a toy that has lafite in it, is that safe for chins? If you wanna see a picture of it then just look up lafite bird toy. Just wanted to make sure before I gave it to him :)
 
I would definitely say no. Has no nutritional value, and could cause problems if swallowed. Stick to safe grasses and woods.
 
It took me a bit to even find lafite, lol. I'm guessing you mean lafite grass, that straw like stuff? It looks ok, so long as it's all natural and not dyed or anything, looking online it looks like it's commonly made into hats. The only bird toy that came up when I search I wouldn't expect to last more then a day with my guys. From what I could find it's not toxic, but is a tough fiber that doesn't break easily, apparently a bird got it wrapped around it's neck and almost died, so make sure it's in strands not loops to be on the safe side.
