You can't use scented cat litter even if it is natural. For instance I buy Yesterdays News and it is just simply paper but you can also get a scented one too, I don't trust it

I got a pic so you can see how it looks on that type of play gym. I have a smaller one than you but basically the same thing. The budgies forage too but don't toss the pellets out.

Thanks everyone! Great ideas! I'll give the wood pellets a try. I also have a small leftover piece of plexiglass I used for the top of their cages I can have cut and try. The cardboard kitty litter is a great idea too. Thanks everyone! I'll try them all!
And God said, "...let birds fly above the earth across the expanse of the sky." And God saw that it was good.

Coreflute.
The same stuff real estate signs are made of.
Easy to cut easy to clean and cheap enough to throw away.
Other wise if they are going to chew that you could try linoleum. again easy to cut and clean.
I do not have any problems with my guys chewing the paper I use. It is new news print. I use it under the cages, the play gyms and in the bottom of the cages. But if I had a chewing problem I would go with either of the above.
In fact I have just used old real estate signs under the temp cage Jack was in, in the spare room to stop his mess going everywhere. he would throw his food everywhere.
A tribute to my lost ones. RIP.
