About parakeets and change... I know my two hate change. Move their toys around and they will sit there and avoid them for a few days till they deem them safe in their new position. Mine seem to prefer salty over sweet. Silly thing will lick my fingers after I eat chips or will even have the audacity to come over and lick a chip in my hands.


yup..salty over sweet..i find that also..

I think the main problem with honey is that large amounts could cause a sugar over dose in pet birds.  Hummingbirds have such a high metabolism that they actually need all that sugar.

I've heard that too much salt can be bad for birds too.  But I guess too much sugar or salt are bad for us too!

Thanks for all the ideas everyone!
