The previous owner of one of my M2s fed him coffee everyday!!!! That is toxic, also. I wonder if he is going through withdrawal...I know if I don't have coffee I get a migraine at about noon...

Another previous owner of my BFA fed him buttered popcorn everynight. seriously.

But, it is good that you are getting information, we all had to start somewhere!

^The previous owner of my U2 was a chain smoker... Inside the house!
I guess some people just don't think about what is healthy for the bird.

I don't smoke inside my house because of my fids and kids. It is bad for all. But I have read somewhere online that birds especially are very inhalant and any type of fumes are like ten times worse for birds because it goes straight to them.
