7.Expired or spoiled food: 

These foods may carry bacteria or parasites that can have adverse effects on the health of your parrot.


8.High-fat junk food: 

Such as potato chips, donuts, etc., are high in fat and can cause fatty liver disease.

causing them to be unable to digest these foods or become uncomfortable due to excitement.

For the health of parrots, it is recommended to provide a variety of healthy foods, 

such as fruits, grains, seeds, etc., and ensure that the food is fresh and clean.
