    re:Coffee

    Hi Ans,

    African greys should NOT eat coffee or tea, and in fact it's considered as poison to them and might even kill them.

    Is your parrot ok?

    See my post about Food that is considered as toxic to african greys

    That might be better.. It's the caffeine that's the problem.. I think..

    re:Coffee

    CD is right. Decaf is better, but still has some caffeine in it, so I woudn't go wild with letting them drink it.

    re:Coffee

    I'd err on the safe side and not let them have any, I wouldn't want to lose them.
