Papillae are pointed structures inside a bird's mouth. Did you know that their color, size and shape can indicate nutritional health?

when they referred to Sophia as a "mistreated macaw" I was expecting her to, very reasonably, be a complete terror. She was *so* good! so proud of her, and her new owner seems like a total gem

@@Gunnar2V you should buy meat from local farms and not from supermarkets that sell meat from industrial farms. You dont need to be vegan to speak against animal abuse! I also sugest to not eat seafood, it has a lot of bycatch (animals that arent targeted but still get caught) like sea turtles, dolphins, sharks, whales and sea birds.

@HRTsAFyre 3 года назад

Pine nuts, almonds, walnuts, macadamia nuts, cashews, hazelnuts, Brazil nuts,, pecans, pistachios. These are fed as treats or broken into small bites for training purposes. They are considered high value rewards for good behavior. I give my Macaw 1 walnut or 1 almond in the shell daily for beak exercise by cracking them open. The almond shell she uses to grind her beak and keep it trimmed herself.

@HRTsAFyre 3 года назад

No peanuts. They aren't even tree nuts they are legumes grown I the soil and can carry asperligosis. A fungus they can get from mold spores in peanuts. It can make your bird very, very sick.
