Hi all!
I've been giving my lovebirds branches from trees such as apple, oak and hazelnut since I have an abundance of those trees around me. I'd strip off the leaves and scrub with boiling water before drying out and they enjoy the task of shredding the bark, but I feel like they're missing out a lot with the leaves missing.
When looking up safe woods I looked at several safe wood lists and all three I use were widely regarded as safe - but not much clarification if that includes the leaves too.
So here's where you guys come in! Do you know if it's safe to leave them on with these trees? I know they probably won't go out of their way to eat loads of it and will mostly pick apart and shred for fun, but I want to be sure before I give it them.
Thanks.
