Re: Cinnamon Sticks
Just raw regular cinnamon sticks? I wasn't aware they could chew/eat that! Is it safe?

Re: Cinnamon Sticks
Cinnamon sticks are a healthy toy/snack for birds. Ground cinnamon can also be sprinkled on their foods for a little treat.

Re: Cinnamon Sticks
Rich: I saw someone say on here that nutmeg is BAD!!! So just to be safe, don't give it...... I can't find where I saw it tho, I'll keep looking....
On the other hand, I'm going to go and give Boogie a cinnimon stick right now!!!! I'm sure that he'll have fun with it!From the crazy mind of Candace....

Re: Cinnamon Sticks
Mine eyed the starry-woody things (anise still in shells) with great suspicion...
But I just left it there.
They'll get used to it!
But REALLY glad to know about the cinnamon sticks. I'll give them those immediately! Thanks.

Re: Cinnamon Sticks
Thank you for pointing the cinnamon sticks out. This is the first treat I've tried that my budgie likes. He won't touch anything besides seed.

Re: Cinnamon Sticks
On a similar note...I was feeding my birds some jalapenos when my son walked in and noticed. He was pretty impressed. I told him they do not have saliva which is what makes the pepper seem hot to us. He replied "Bet it hurts comin back out though" I didn't know what to say and stopped feeding the peppers. Any comments?
