Toxic Foods.
The main food that is most toxic to a parrot is Avocado. This includes the
- Skin
- The actual fruit it self
- The fruit juices
and most importantly,
- The pip/seed inside.
WHAT TO DO IF YOUR PARROT EATS AVOCADO -
The first thing you should do if you see your parrot eat this fruit is remove the remaining fruit that your parrot has and examine how much your parrot has eaten. Once you have estimated the amount consumed, throw away the rest of the fruit.
Ring you local avian specialist and let them know what has happens. If your parrot has not consumed much avocado, then your vet will possibly just tell you to keep on eye on there behaviour, and/or there faeces. Also watch out to see if the parrot eat and drinks normally, the more the parrot eat and drinks, the quicker the avocado will get washed out of there system.
Also another trick you could try is getting a small syringe, and syringe some clear fluids into your parrot's mouth, not to much, syringe about 1/2 ml's depending on how much the parrot consumed.
