Georgiesmum Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 What are your opinions on letting your parrots have a little milk? George loves milk but I'm afraid this is harmful so he only gets a taste every now and then... :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 Greys are lactose intolerant so letting him have a little milk is harmful but a taste once in a while won't do him any harm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayd Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 Hi, we give all our fids a product called "Rice Dream" [reg, no vanilla] It's a rice product and is good for them, Golly, it tastes like low fat milk, most stores carry it, just put a few Cherrio's and a little rice milk and enjoy breakfast wit you Grey....Jayd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xtreme575 Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 Great idea Jay! Thanks! I can't keep Paco out of milk either, he goes made for it, but I only let him have the odd tast as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greywings Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 We use a Coconut Milk product at our house here it is- http://www.turtlemountain.com/products/coconut_milk_beverage.html Dairy sensitive household and we used to all drink Soy milk but prefer the Almond milk and now the Coconut Milk.

KimmieB Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 Our vet told us that if the animal doesn't have teats, then it shouldn't drink milk. Even if Loki did get into the milk, its lactose free, so I wouldn't be too worried. The last thing I need is her addicted to that. We switched to low-sugar juice because she kept trying to ninja our drinks lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
