Milk & Porridge
Birds are largely lactose intolerant which means they cannot digest things like milk they can tolerate a very small quantity but foods high in milk are poor food choices, don’t offer your bird soft cheese or milk in a direct manner try for the healthier choices.
If your parrot likes porridge then there is a way around making it with milk and a lot really like it. Keep the milk for your porridge make your parrots with apple juice (unsweetened there’s enough natural sugar in apple juice for that!). Don’t forget no salt, forget the sugar and no milk! Add a spot of interest to it throw in some chopped bits of fruit just before serving. Remember sometimes parrots look at something new and refuse it sometimes helps if your bird watches you eat too
