Palm oil

I have been reading about palm oil for greys. Does anyone give it to their grey?

At this point, I don't have a Grey to give it too. But this is taken from the web site of the breeder that I'm getting my Timneh from.

Save your money. I tried using red palm oil on two seperate occasions to help with a plucking grey. It didn't work, smelled to high heaven and the bird refused to eat any food with it mixed in it. I think its a waste. Oh, it also stains! :eusa_wall

Thanks for the advice, Nancy.

I hadn't talked to Len about it, I just saw it on his site. Since he sells it, he'd probably say good things about it, huh?

Don:

I GOT it from Len (LOL). I must confess that he didn't push the product. He simply had it for people who wanted to give it a try.
