Pasta?

Is pasta OK, for Conures? With or without sauce?

Pasta is fine! Ollie loooooves goulash, and she also enjoys spaghetti and lasagna (cheese scraped off). She even gets some dried pasta on occasion. Sauce is fine also. Ollie loves the hamburger in the goulash sauce. Just be careful of mushrooms and/or onions in the sauce. Those really aren't great for our fids.

The rule I go by is with the exception of the toxic foods, everything in moderation!

Lisa -- Your photos are TOO darling! It reminds me of dinner at my sister's house: her doggies always enjoy a bit of pasta with homemade sauce :)

Ours love pasta! I give them pasta probably once a week or so. They like spaghetti w/ the sauce.

Sort of. Once a week is fine. You don't want pasta made w/ enriched flour. That usually means more iron.

I feed Scarlett pasta several times a month. She adores it. I usually just sprinkle cayenne pepper or cinnamon on it, though--no sauce. I'll have to remember to add some for her next time.

Bubba and Ziggy love pasta. As a matter of fact, they are having some ziti with a little sauce tonight.
