furley Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Hi all, I know that's its not good for are friends to eat mushrooms,and I don't give her any but should I be concerned as I was making spaggi sauce and she had a mushroom in her mouth and I got it but she did eat a little piece,before I got it from her. Thanks if anyone can help..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRSeedBurners Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Mushrooms are one of those grey-area foods. If they won't kill you, they won't kill your bird but lots of people, including me, don't give them to the birds. A stolen morsel won't hurt your birdy. Mine has made off with one from a pizza that I thought was an olive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timbersmom Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 Timber has also eaten one that I accidentally left in his portion when he was sharing dinner with us. Like Sterling, I try to pick the mushrooms out. But Timber is fine and didn't seem to suffer any ill effects. It's important to remember (though I don't know if this is true of mushrooms) that foods that are bad for them can have cumulative effects (salt and sugar come immediately to mind). So, if Timber eats a bit of those types of thing I know it won't kill him, but I also know that his digestive system doesn't work like mine and things can accumulate over time and causes damage.

Greywings Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 I think the raw mushrooms might be a problem as the spores are so fine and can be inhaled. I know I have read studies and they eat some Fungi in the wild. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
