We own two amazons and we have family members that like to care for them when we're away. They want to give treats to the birds but they've managed to get snagged by the beaks when they do this. I also have little children in the neighborhood that will eventually meet the birds and I know they will want to give treats too.
Has anyone ever used wooden spoons to give the birds a treat (to keep fingers safe). Then the bird could use the spoon as a toy and shred it? Is there certain wooden spoons I should look for? I've heard of people giving parrots a plastic spoon with peanut butter on it - but I would worry the plastic breaking could hurt the bird.
