BUT, people that raise parrots, lovebirds, etc., feed them bananas and no problem. I was in the grocery store last week, and a lady was buying all kinds of produce that had been reduced. I was looking for any apples reduced for the horses, or green beans for me to can. She asked if I was looking at the produce to feed my family, and I told her only green beans. If there were any apples or carrots, I like them for the horses. She said she was buying all hers for the parrots, but wouldn't take food from someone that needed for the family.
Anyway, I can't imagine this rich, well to do lady feeding her parrots things that would kill them. After all, they weren't $2 chicks, they were $2k birds!
