Chop!

[Henderbird]

I completely disagree about not giving your parrot fruit. My parrots get a small amount of fruit every day and they are completely fine.
You also must know that some parrots and birds are frugivores who require fruit in their diet.
I also use coconut oil in my ekkie's food at times, as do many people I know.
You cannot lump all birds together as different species require different diets.

I hope you do some more research so that your parrots are getting the best diet possible.

I just looked at the diet you linked and it contains fruits, including the ones you said not to use.

Excellent point Terry! I was kind of confused with the posters comments and thought for a second "wait a minute, am I doing something wrong?"
But then got a sigh of relief when I saw what you stated haha.
But I hope more people were able to do extensive research on this as Avian Nutrition can be quite a heavy and dense topic! But so important and cannot be underestimated!
Again, love what you stated.

Just be careful with citrus because they are quite acidic

Sure can do!
