Is it o.k. to give a cockatiel zuccini? and if so, can it be raw or does it need to be cooked?
thanks,
lori

It should be fine, they can eat all kinds of melon/squash type foods but watch out for pesticides. Wash it really really well before you peel it if not organic and just give a small slice.

zucchini is good stuff.

A thick slice placed on a bird food kabob (here's a link to an image of one) and hung as a foraging opportunity works well.
