  1. I found it! Chairman & CEO is Charles Holliday DuPont company 1007 Market Street Wilmington, DE 19898 http://www.dupont.com/ Thank you for doing this. I didn't send a letter, I just emailed and called, but it is a great idea, I will also send a letter. Thank you, Ronna
  2. I agree with you!!! I purchased an oven liner from a seller on Amazon, the seller said the oven liner came from Dupont Company, that is where I would start, they would not respond to my phone calls or emails. I would be happy to help in anyway that I can. The oven liner that I purchased said silicone on it. I would not trust the silicone muffin pans either. I am very sorry for poochbabe's loss.....these pet deaths can be prevented, but it has to start with the manifacture's labels. My opinion is that they do not put warning labels on the items, because if it can kill a parrot, where would people draw the line...small dogs, cats, children? It would scare a lot of people out of using their products, but should we be breathing these fumes ourselves? we will find out in several years how harmful they are to humans. Thank you for your comments, I was too broken to do anything about it a few months ago, but I am ready now. Any ideas out there?
  3. I do not own a grey, but I have a story. I know that you have ways to reach out to the public with info on birds. I don't clean my oven like normal people, I do not use chemicals, I just scrape the bottom and wipe it out with hot water. I was introduced to this new product that was supposed to be made of silicone and heat resistant, you are supposed to place it in the bottom of your oven and it catches debris that falls to the bottom, debris does not bake on and you just empty it after each use or when necessary. I read the package and the reviews online, it seemed like a good safe product, it even says on the product that it is safe. I placed this thing in my oven, proceeded to bake a pizza at 370-375* I know that they thermostat control was a bit below 375* so lets say 370*. Preheated 5 minutes, placed the pizza in and cooked approx 20 minutes.I had yesterday off from work and played with them all day and they were happy, fun and very healthy.I turned off the stove a couple of minutes before the pizza was done, pulled out the pizza and left the oven door open approx six inches.Before we could eat the second piece of pizza, my parrotlet let out a weird peep that I have never heard him do before, my roommate ran to the cage, picked him up and he died in her hand in the matter of seconds.We we very sad and tried to revive him with no luck, about 7-8minutes had passed while we were trying to figure out what the heck happened to our happy little bird.I told my roommate to show his body to my two caiques so they would know that he had died and so they wouldn't whistle for him.I took one caique out the the cage to show him the lifeless parrotlet, then I went to have the other caique to step up, she looked she was drunk, she was squatting sort of on her heated perch. I immediately knew we had to rush them outside to get some fresh air, Daisy was my baby girl, my first parrot and my good friend, she went down hill fast. I called an avian vet at the University of TN, they said she needed oxygen asap. I called my local Fire Dept. they came with a rescue truck and administered oxygen into a box with Daisy for 25-30 minutes, she looked more alert, but sort of in shock.The avian vet at UT said to take the oxygen off of her and see if she stays alert, if she fades backwards it would mean that she had a lethal dose and her outcome was not good.We took the oxygen and headed toward the University, Daisy started to go down hill very soon into our journey, so I turned around and let her rest at home.Daisy suffered for more than four hours before she finally gave up. I feel as if I lost my child, I do not have children and my birds are my babies. In the matter of four hours, 2 of my 3 of my family members were gone.I have contacted the company that packaged this product, they are claiming that this product is safe. I don't have a self cleaning oven, I clean it myself. I want the warnings to change on the packaging to state harmful affects on birds. Thank you for listening
