Can my Sun Conure eat

NO, NO, NO, NO! Your bird will die from eating that stuff as it is packed with sugar. Sugar kills birds and in a very short time as well.

Feed your bird ONLY organic fruit and veggies. Never, never feed anything with sugar in it as this will kill your bird.

Please STOP feeding this to him immediately as you are hurting your bird. Birds are like kids, and will EAT ANYTHING THEY ARE GIVEN ESPECIALLY IF IT IS SWEET AND WRONG FOR THEM.

Your bird should be eating an organic pelleted diet supplemented with a very little organic fruit and veggies. Even dried fruit has to bought as Certified Organic in a health food store as they use sulphur to preserve the dried fuit we find in grocery stores. Sulphur is poison for humans and birds.

Feed him NO PEOPLE FOOD OR TABLE FOOD AS THESE HAVE HIGH SALT, SUGAR AN FAT CONTENT WHICH WILL KILL YOUR BIRD QUICKLY OR MORE SLOWLY.

Find some written information about parrot care in form of books or other information on the internet and learn how to take better care of your bird.

Thanks for writing,
Linda
