Can Parrots Eat Oranges?

Answer

Parrots eat mushrooms and not oranges. A cooked mushroom won't kill him, but it's not a wonderful food for them. Seafood - yes, things like wild caught salmon or tuna (though I've been told levels of mercury in tuna are high, so I only give them tiny bits) if you're having it, but they also love things like shrimp and prawns, presumably as they are similar to the insect grubs they would consume in the wild. In recent years, more research has been done into feeding captive parrots. This has mainly been in Europe and in the States. Pellet diets now seem to be about the most balanced diets on the market.
