Hey! A good idea if you like getting pumpkins are actually there are two ways. One is if you like having pumpkins inside, then you could get one of those mini pumpkins and just draw on them with sharpie. Another thing is what we usually do. I love carving pumpkins so halloween without a carved pumpkin wouldn’t be right. If you want to carve it just keep the pumpkin outside out of reach from you bird! cya!
