Chili's vet visit

[Kiwibird]

I use the manu blocks too, but I have always been under the impression ONLY parrots NATIVE to the amazon basin should get this. It's something parrots from this region consume in nature (you know those videos with thousands of wild parrots chewing on a cliff face? Manu clay is what they're eating). Old world parrots like cockatoos, eclectus, african grays ext... would never naturally ingest this kind of mineral clay and probably shouldn't be offered it.

Hope you find a good way to get Chili the *right* nutrients she needs as a cockatoo

Doing a search on Mineral Blocks ( I read a posting somewhere else it is important for birds ) I ran across this thread and to be honest i kinda shocked me. I never thought of the salt . Makes me wonder what else I have missed
