Peanuts for Conures
by Robin
(Chicago, IL USA)
When I got my conure I checked all the proper foods to feed it and particularly what foods NOT to feed it. However the other day I came across a site where a seemingly professional was writing about training his parrot, can't remember if it was a conture, but must have been since that's what I'm interested in where he said he was using peanutbutter. It would seem to me that this is about the worse thing to give a bird: peanuts, oil, salt. And I am constantly picking out peanuts from my supposidely "Conure" food.
What's with this? Am I the off base? or are they? I welcome all comments!!
