I use it with my caique. It tends to have a calming effect.
Nokomis gets it lots of ways... Sometimes as a warm tea, sometimes as a cool drink in a small bowl in his cage. Sometimes he gets the tea bag to chew on while it's still warm. I even feed him chamomile flowers. No specific dosage, just make sure it's decaf. Really seems to help him stay relaxed before a vet visit, if there's alot of company and commotion in the house, or if he's having trouble settling in for the night. Plus, he just plain likes it
