How often do you give your birds eggs, if ever?

My Zons like eggs a lot.
I am cooking eggs for them (usually just in a scrambled form) ...oh...maybe 2-3 times a week.
They would eat it every day if I am to give them eggs every day.
So, does anyone here know if it's OK?

It's okay to feed your birds scrambled eggs, but I would think three times a week alittle much. Make sure you cook them in water and not oil or butter, or even in the microwave. Eggs give them protein and they are good for them. Especially hard boiled.

i am the mom of three parrots:
Dorothy- African grey (cag)
Bowie- blue and gold macaw
Nellie- hyacinth macaw
Reggie- hyacinth macaw
Marnie- white bellied caique
It is also too much protein for them to eat it every day. I would say a couple of times a week is alright.

My parrots love scrambled eggs. Sometimes, they'll eat part of hard boiled egg, too. Especially good for calcium for them!

I agree with the once or twice a week for feeding eggs. They are definitely one of my parrotlets and lovebirds favorite foods, along with soaked or sprouted seed and sweet potato.
