Is all spinach safe?

[AutumnBreeze]

I went to my local plant shop and they had like 15 different types of spinach seeds. I bought the Monstrueux de viroflay because it seemed to have a large yield and it contained the most seeds. Is this still safe for my birds?

in moderation-- look up iron storage disease.

Oh, and dont forget: only fresh spinach is safe, once chopped or cooked do not feed the next day! (But since the same goes for humans you already knew that.)

its advised against because the nitrite/nitrate issue (NO2 -NO3)

no it does not kill every single time (obviously)
but spinach is one of those foodstuffs you should not mess around with too much.
