fruit pot!

[Guest briansmum]

i got a little fruit pot from the store and it has pineapple and kiwi in it, can they have those, i'm not sure

[lovemyGreys]

Can you list the ingredients beccy ? Does it come in syrup ?

[Guest briansmum]

no it's just pieces of chopped fruit in a little pot, theres melon, grapes and apple in it also, i'm just not sure about the pineapple or kiwi

[Guest Monique]

You are fine with that fruit. Be sure there are no apple seeds in it.

[lovemyGreys]

There all fine beccy, just make sure there is no apple pips ! My boys love kiwi

[Guest briansmum]

oh no, i know about apple pips. so the seeds in kiwi are ok?

[Guest Monique]

Yes those are fine

[Tari]

Ya kiwi is great. You may have to at least cut the grapes in half though mine won't touch them any other way.

[Guest briansmum]

thanks guys, im sure brian will br very unimpressed at yet another new food in his dish and it will likely end up on the floor, but it's always good to know

[judygram]

Those fruits are fine, just like the others said, no apple seeds, but you knew that already.

Hi Beccy, kiwi is great for them. My greys love them almost as much as prickley pears, in fact all my birds go nuts for kiwi & prickley pears, cherries (no pit), pineapples, cantalope, apples, blue berries, cooked beans & pasta, and hot peppers. It seems the hotter the better but remember before you give them a kiss prepare yourself for a hot lips:laugh:

enjoy Benny

LOL Fourtrap!! Speaking of Hot Lips....

 

Yes, I was not prepared for the "HOT" pepper dust that is a fine coating over all the contents of the seed/pellet blend from Browns I use for Dayo.

 

The first day I gave it to him, he pretty much had half his body in the stainless bowl going to town on the Peppers.

 

After sitting on my shoulder, sleeping on my chest and basically wandering all over my body and head throughout the day...He left a trail!

 

I a woke around midnight with my scalp, cheeks and neck burning. It really freaked me out for a second until all my processors came online and analysed the possibilities..Stroke, mysterious disease, chemicals I used during the day :ohmy: ....Then the "Pepper Factor" came to mind :laugh:

 

I got up, washed my face and hair.....scary issue resolved. :woohoo:

 

That is some REALLY HOT stuff ;-) and Greys (Dayo) loves it!! :woohoo:

Now this is something I can really laugh at, I wish you could see me now, rolling around on the floor laughing my cheeks off. You must have scared Kim to death, and I would have probably done the same thing.

 

Thanks Dan, for sharing this story with us, it made me laugh and I know it will others too, I can always count on you for a good one.

[fourtrap]

Hey Dan that story is just to funny but I can just imagine the thoughts going through your head:laugh: It's a wounder that it does not bother the birds yet infact they love it. Have a great day.

[danmcq]

Glad you all had a laugh from it....Thats what you call a "Hot August Night". :-)

[Talon]

Very funny story, Dan. Thanks for sharing that with us!!

Now what was this thread about, oh right, a fruit pot. We kind of got sidetracked there but I am going to get this back on track.

 

Fruits are well and good but there should be more veggies than fruits given to our greys.

Way to go Tracy, I love those little emoticons, oh no, I have gone off topic again.

[danmcq]

Fruit ....Fruit...Fruit... yes....off topic again Judy.

 

Cactus Fruit, has anyone ever tried it themselves or given some to their Grey?

[lovemyGreys]

Well it's not on my toxic list Dan but something i am pretty sure we dont get here in the uk

have you fed it to your grey or yourself ?

[Talon]

Sorry guys, but I have to chime in here. And this is OFF-TOPIC! Sorry, but I just love the army of off topic guys. They are so cute! Judy, maybe there's one for you in there! :lol:

:laugh:

[judygram]

Sorry this is off topic too, but no there is no one there for me, but they are cute.

 

Back on topic, no I have never tried cactus fruit, what is it by the way?

[danmcq]

Judy, well.......It's Cactus Fruit....Fruit of the Cactus.....Fruit from the Cactus......hmmmmmmm, those are all the ways I can think of explaining it. :-)

 

Ok, I am talking of one type which grows here in the deserts of the southwest USA. It is called Saugaro cactus fruit.

 

Maybe a Picture:
