Reply With QuoteI wish I could get my hands on some of those palm nuts, I do feed Josey a little of the palm oil every day, but the nut itself would be super.:P
Just wondered if your greys enjoyed them as much as mine ?
.The fruit of the African oil palm which grows throughout tropical Africa.Also know as a fruit,It is actually the yellow flesh around the kernel that is important. Palm Nuts are a nutritious natural food for all African Grey Parrots.

Never take life seriously, no one gets out alive anyway!
Are you unable to get them ? That is such a shame, they enjoy them so much & it keeps them quiet for about 10 minutes
I'll have to do a search and see if they are available here in the US, I'm sure Josey would like to tear them up. I'm at work now but I will look when I get home.
I have done an extensive search of the web and cannot find one company in the US that imports and sells raw Palm Nuts.
It looks like we can get the Oil, but for some unknown reason, a source seems to be lacking here.
Does anyone know of a US company that imports and sells raw Palm Nuts??<br><br>Post edited by: danmcq, at: 2007/08/16 19:12
Within all of us is a varying amount of space lint and star dust, the residue from our creation. Most are too busy to notice it, and it is stronger in some than others. It is strongest in those of us who fly and is responsible for an unconscious, subtle desire to slip into some wings and try for the elusive boundaries of our origin. ~K.O.

:woohoo: That is alot Dan,
You could try e-mailing Rob Harvey, He is the supplier i use,

Thanks lovemygreys!
I have emailed Rob. The prices he has posted are very reasonable.
It's going to be the shipping costs that will drive it up, but I am willing to pay that :-)
My Master Dayo states that cost is not a concern :laugh:
