Re: Pellet reccomendations

I'm interested in finding some good pellets too. There's nothing around where I live and even the WalMarts are (several of them) at least 30 minutes drive. But I'm going to a Pet Mart about 40 minutes from here next week cuz I'll be in that city for a tooth extraction. Any recommendations on pellets...

Among fruits and vegetables, avoid giving your parrot avocado, raw cabbage and onions, eggplant, persimmons, apple seeds, ...

Re: What to Feed your Parrot (recipes, toxicities, links too

I read they shouldn't have cabbage (and onion and avocado). I won't take a chance on anything I've read isn't good for them.

I have dried sweetened cranberries, but I'm thinking the extra sugar makes them a no-go.
