Leaves and Branches

Post by Becx »

Hi,

Can anyone tell me which selection of leaves and branches your IRN enjoys ripping up and that are safe to eat? I've read the eucalyptus branches are ok, but not sure if the leaves are suitable as well.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers, :D

Thanks so much - everyone who has replied to my many questions lately. I'm fast getting up to speed with being an IRN owner. My little Sunny-Button is just the most fabulous pet! Thanks again! :D

I am lucky to be surrounded by huge eucalypts, and my birds have a ball destroying them!
