Is Your Parrot Getting Enough Fresh Veggies?

When the seasons change, expect to see a change in your diet. Succulent fruits and crisp veggies are once again readily available. One way to incorporate fresh veggies into your parrot’s daily diet is to do the same for yourself. When I first started reading about how much fresh veggies a healthy parrot requires I realized I wasn’t getting enough of them either. Now I try to incorporate fresh veggies in every meal, just so I can offer them to my parrot during meal times.
WARNING:  DO NOT feed onions, avocados, garlic or mushrooms to your parrot; they are poisonous and fatal. When in doubt, ask your avian vet what foods are safe for your bird. My vet has never charged me for general dietary related questions. And NEVER break any dietary restrictions your vet has prescribed for your bird.
