He surprises me every day!! These last couple days he's been letting me pet his back, wings, and chest- I've NEVER been able to even think of doing that before!! And lately when I give him scritching sessions I've been smelling that musky zon cologne I've read about in other posts. Ooo ooo- and today- he let me KISS him on the head I was so nervous but went for it lol

 

[SandyBee]

Awwww, so cute.
Now that he trusts you it just keeps getting better.

Cheerios are very good for people but very bad for birds. They have a lot of iron added and birds don't need any extra iron -it goes to the liver and ends up causing liver disease.

Awww... There's always one party pooper in the flock lol (just teasing)
Thanks for the info, I wouldn't have known that- so I'll refrain from giving him any more Cheerios

That's true for almost all cereals and most processed foods made for humans.
Once in a blue moon though..............
Try hot air popcorn with no butter and salt, that tends to be a hit while still being a somewhat healthy treat.

Oh I see... Makes sense. Guess I'll have to be more careful with what I give my little green piggy lol. He hasn't had cheerios in a while and he definitely doesn't get them on a regular basis.

Ah! SUCH a cute bird! I dunno why but all my birds have lived cheerioes too! Maybe it's the "crunch"? Thanks for sharing photos of your baby!

I think everything in moderation.

MANY moons ago, before I even had my own parrot, I visited this little old French lady who taught me all about wildlife rehabilitation. Anyway, she had a B&G Macaw and a Yellow Naped Amazon. The B&G was over 60 at the time, and the Amazon over 50. They had lived on human food their entire life. She never purchased a single bag of parrot food. And they both looked FANTASTIC!!
