Through the raw community, I have been trying some interesting fruits not particularly common here in the US. In particular, durian and jackfruit (yes, they look very similar, no they are not the same). Does anyone know if either of these would be safe to share with Kiwi? I bet he would *love* jackfruit. It is very juicy and sweet!
And beyond just those 2 particular fruits, is there any safe way to gauge the safety of uncommon/rare fruits and if they are ok for birds? I mean, I would have never guessed avocado would be bad for them had I not been told that. Any insights on determining safety of fruits/veg/nuts/seeds not commonly listed on "safe" lists? Theres a few other things I think he may enjoy trying like sugar cane juice (literally freshly juiced sugar cane) and those spiky orange fruits or starfruit...
