when you say cuttlebone, is it the same as from a cuttlefish? if so, is it like a chewtoy for the bird?

Yep, it's the internal shell of a cuttlefish. It provides some calcium for the bits they eat, and helps the bird polish their beaks. Plus they get a little bit of stimulation and exercise pecking at it.
