Is cast iron safe for birds?

Is cast iron safe to use in another room of a parrot? We want to get some safe cookware since we got rid of all of our non stick.

I use cast iron with no problems. Stainless steel or copper-clad stainless steel is another good choice. This article Bird-Safe Cookware: Is There A Killer In Your Kitchen? lists a few more ideas.

Cast iron is a good choice. It's bird-safe and will last a lifetime if properly cared for. I always like to mention the cast iron pan that I have that was originally one of my grandmother's wedding gifts-- in 1915. I still use that 98-year-old pan regularly.

Even though it's safe remember that smoke and over heated oil can still be a danger
