Garlic

[Bubba27]

I read its terrible for Macaws?
I read it's wonderful for Macaws?

Being a cancer patient I know it's extremely beneficial to humans and should be in everyones diet, allot.
Almost Daily.

After all of my reading, for Macaws, I have concluded it should be sprinkled over chop in powder form and given as finally chopped in raw form.
Only once a week at most!

AM I WRONG?

The SAFE answer is NO.
With so many safe veggies out there that are 100% OK for parrots, why feed them something that is borderline and controversial ?? Its like giving chocolate to dogs - will one Hersheys Kiss kill them? No, but too much will. Who wants to take a chance that too much garlic is dangerous? A responsible parront will not offer anything to their parrot that might even be a little dangerous.
