Pecans?

[Jo P]

I've looked over the lists of foods that are okay to feed my grey, but haven't seen anything on pecans. Does anyone know if they are a safe to feed? If so, do they need to be shelled or can I let Simba try to get the treat out?

Thanks!

They're fine. You can leave them in the shell or take them out. After a few times of trying, your bird will tell you how he prefers them.

Thanks Dave!

My birds love them. Although I think they love peanuts in the shell the most.

Yummy, my birds like pecans too but I haven't given them the ones in the shell, I usually give them shelled but I guess I could make them work a little harder to get it out of the shell.

My bird eats everything !

I think I have the only Grey in the world who doesn't much care for nuts. I've tried every type, it makes giving treat rewards difficult. So I use nutri-berry popcorn treats for now.

Too bad you don't live nearby. I could give you about 8 lbs of them.

Thanks Dave. That's a sweet idea, I may try making some of those.
