[Lex]

OK kya has a thing about cups mugs or what ever you like to call them. She won`t let go my question is can a small amount of tea with rice milk in? will it do any harm to birds? (tea made with tea bags) i know all about milk ect and coffee and these are a NO NO but thought i`d ask about a nice cup of tea us brits are mad on it :rolleyes:

Tea has caffeine in it, [unless decaffeinated] this is a no-no. Some other ingredients depending on the kind of tea can be harmful to our fid's also...Unflavored rice milk[rice only] is ok in small amounts, read the ingredients......Thanks Jayd

Tea would not be good. But I do share a few little sips of my morning fruit juice, before I've drunk any of it.

I've had that cuppa and don't care for it but no do not give it to your birds, the juices are ok before you take the first sip so as not to transfer any germs.

Brits and their cuppas, give me a cup of coffee any day!

Awww, Judygram there is nothing quite like a nice cuppa mid morning when the kids are both at school and the house is quiet! However, to be able to survive and be human until this point I do need my several cups of strong coffee in the morning. I may now be thought of as Spanish by living here for so long, but there is still some Brit in me and I still need my tea, baked beans, Branston Pickle and Chedder Cheese! LOL

 

Lex - It is a myth that tea contains less caffeineg then coffee, as it's the caffeine that is toxic to parrots tea is also a no no.
