Guest briansmum Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 i haven't given brian a chilli i don't eat them. what do you do, just slice a bit off, take out the seeds and give them it, do you need to cook it? what is the nutritional value?

judygram Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Give them raw to them, Beccy, you could slice them and put in his bowl or skewer them, no need to remove the seeds or cook them, but you could if you want. I don't know about the nutritional value but it has more than a grape does.:laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Lidia Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Joshua sometimes loves them and sometimes ignores them. He usually gets one every morning with his breakfast (a whole dried one). Sometimes he chomps straight into it, sometimes it is there for the entire day and just gets discarded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last night I was eating a toasted cheese sandwich and Joshua flew down to me to get some. I broke a piece off for him, but he kept dropping it and wanted to bite off his own piece, which was much larger. He just didn't want the piece I gave him because it was small!!

Guest briansmum Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 brian is like that.. ooh no can't have the piece i give him, that has been taken off thus it must not be half as tasty anymore, i must bite my own bit! also i was giving him some raspberries, blueberries and grapes earlier and i gave him the raspberry first.. it hit the deck, so i offered the blueberry (which i know he likes) and this went straight on the floor too. the little monkey wouldn't eat them because i wasn't quick enough to hide the grape and he spotted it!

They are utter little ratbags when they want to be! I was having a civilised whiskey last night and Joshua kept trying to get at the glass. Not to drink the whiskey, you understand, but to attack the glass. I also bought him a new type of parrot mix yesterday, that costs twice as much as the stuff I normally get, and he just turned his beak up at it, even though it smells like lovely oranges and orange blossom.

Parrotkisses1 Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 You know I went to a big chilly seminar about all the minerals and vitamins that are in chilies and also found out that the parrots don;t taste the hot spicy like us...My nandi of 16 years loved chillies...but more liked to play attack and pounce on apples whole ones like it was an object of prey...

mandiskem Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 chillies can give our beloved parrots asthma. my boss at a parrot refuge centre told me why as well. with the chiiles dried and fresh ones gies off the hot taste we have in their mouths and causes asthma. the fresh bell ones are ok togive our parrots without the pips Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
