There is a lot of information surging through the parrot
world about what is and isn't safe for your parrot. With
the age of the internet, these bits of information can
make their way around the world faster than you can say
"PBFD"!While it is often impossible to confirm the
authenticity of a particular alert, those that appear to
be valid will be posted here. If a listing has been
submitted by a member having experienced the issue
first-hand, it will be noted. Otherwise, information has
not been validated nor substantiated.
| 2/4/09 - DANGER!
We received a note regarding
a Hyacinth that died due to someone cooking
with aluminum foil containing a non-stick coating on
it. Please
DO NOT USE THIS TYPE OF PRODUCT IN YOUR HOME WITH BIRDS.
Also, DO NOT use the cooking bags which are
available. The cooking bags are a potential
hazard for your birds. Please be careful! Do
not use any products with Teflon. It is up
to us to protect our birds from dangerous
fumes. |
