Tycos_mom Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 I bought my birds a pomagrante for a treat the other day. They are Tyco very favorite thing to eat. But every time she eats a seed from them it causes her to shake her head which in turn get bright red pomagranre juice everywhere its like she can't help it the fruit makes her do this. I think its the soursweetness of them, Does it do this to anybody elses birds?
Dave007 Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 It happens to just about 95% to people who's birds eat pomagranites. It about the messiest fruit to give birds. Have a good spray cleanerr nearby. When it dries, stain is hard to get off. It looks like your wall is starting to bleed. It's a great scene that belongs on the SciFi channel. Only thing missing is the guts and the gore.
bettyboop Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 Hi Pat , perhaps the seed is bitter ? I have no idea. Mary

BlueCounty Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 Gizmo does this when I give him Blueberries and Grapes. It's like he cant wait to suck all the juice out of the fruit which makes his head shake like mad :laugh:
Suzzique Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 Yep Alex does the head shake with pomegranate. It gets juice everywhere! Looks like someone was murdered around the bird cage! LOL
Abernathy Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 Morgan does this when I give him blueberry and oat baby food. He also does it when he tries things for the first time.
Matthew Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 Tucker does that when he tries things for the first time too. I've never given him pomegranate though. I just don't want to have to clean that up.
zooman Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 yep mine does this too with any kind of sour fruit, like oranges, lemon and grapefruit, havent tried pomegranate and would be scared to raspberries was hard enough to get off the walls..lol

Tycos_mom Posted September 23, 2008 Author Posted September 23, 2008 Its messy but as long as ou clean it up right away it not hard its after it dries that its a problem I also make sure that I put the dish with the ponagrante on their play top right in the middle so most of the mess stay in their cage area.
