Can a African Grey Eat...?

Hi, yes, any parrot, or bird can have a few peanuts on occation. What you have to worry about, is the salt. Salt can be very unhealthy to birds, so is high sugar contented foods. And you may not think that she drinks a lot of water, because she gets moisture, and liquid from the fruits and veggies she eats. And someone said you feed them water with a syringe, you don't feed them with the needle on the syringe...you take it off lol. I am hand-feeding a Sun Conure right now, and we feed with of course, with the needle off. It is a VERY bad idea to feed a bird water with a syringe, as one:they can choke. Two: They will become depended on you to give them water every day for the rest of their lives...And three:why in the WORLD would someone feed a healthy, independent bird with a syringe? Well..to answer your question, yes, your grey can eat Emerald Dry Roasted Peanuts, if they are unsalted, or have little to no salt on them.
