Thumbs up Frozen Blueberries

Picked up a bag of frozen Blueberries yesterday for Quito. I usually give her grape pieces when she sits on her playstand here in the computer room, but thought she might like a change. She loves them! I just throw a few in a dish and let them thaw out, only takes a few minutes. Downside: stained fingers. Also probably techi-color poop!!

blueberries are full of good stuff!
Heard that too many grapes give them the runs!

Does anyone give 'frozen' treats to fids????
I personally can't wait for some stuff to thaw & end up eating it a little frozen - would a bird enjoy 'chewing' into a softly-frozen fruit or would it hurt them? (not a rock-hard treat) A few years ago I really got into DelMonte's frozen fruit'cicles .......

Bud, my BCC, LOVES to drink ice cold water. He'll take a drink then shake his head like he has brain freeze!! He'll also eat fruit and veggies that come right out of the fridge, usually if they've been cooked, he doesn't like them as well.

All of my birds love ice cubes...:)
Yep, they shake their heads an switch feet but do not drop them.
That's got to be sign that they like them, right?
