Tonight Chiqui was on her play stand while I was eating some
Asparagus and she was MAD that I wouldn't share. So I handed her her very own mini pepper.
And she tore through it!

She sure loves her peppers! Amazons must eat wild peppers because it seems to be a universal food they all enjoy. They also like spicy peppers.

It took her a minute to grab it from me... I usually slice them for her. I don't eat peppers myself so I keep it only for the fids!
She's pretty much a birdie trash can anyways especially when she's on her stand and I'm eating at the same time. Lol

Adorable photo of Chiqui! :) Peppers (all kinds) are a huge hit with my Amazons, too. They actually beg when they see them. Good thing they don't drool. :D

They don't drool, but have you ever cuddled with one who recently ate a pepper? Those pepper spores or whatever they are transfer nicely to your face and lips!!

Yes, Scott, indeed!!! ....not to mention you accidentally rub your eyes (or other vulnerable places) after having cut up some habaneros and/or jalapenos. :eek:
