    Plants for Bird Room

    I am looking into adding a hanging plant in my bird room. What are some good suggestions? The bird may never come into contact with the plant, but they will be loose at times so you never know. :) This is also a North Facing window, so it does get sun, just not tons. Thanks!!

    Conure ill from house plants?

    My friend's Green Cheek Conure chewed on a house plant- I think it is a succulent about three hours ago and now won't eat his favorite food. He seems ok except for low energy. Can conures get an "upset stomach" from chewing on plants like that? Is there anything to do to help him? thanks!
