Hamburger,chicken,pork,roast,you name it they like it.Also the side dish's like mac&cheese,peas,carrots,ect.Sure hope this is ok for them they are doing fine.the qp is 2yrs an 1 tiel is 4yrs an the other is 10yrs. Does anyone else have meat eating bird's,or are mine just wierd.

Also have
2 rat terriers

Thanks Vicki S.

My guys enjoy meat as well, I just make sure it's not the fatty stuff (I don't give my birds hamburger, but they get other cuts of beef). While mac and cheese won't hurt them, keep it in moderation. Only a bit every few weeks. It does have a lot of dairy in it and our birds don't handle some dairy products very well.

Cricket is a big fan of chicken... when i make grilled chicken, we all eat it... my cats and my birds!

Casey loves chicken and fish!

Thanks for all of your input,nice to know about the Hamburger,
an the dairy.

If Im eating ANYTHING I better plan on sharing!! Chicken, turkey, hamburger, hot dogs, steak, pepperoni, pizza, cheese, crackers, whatever!!! THEY want it NOW!!! And if - heaven forbid - I don't let them have some, someone will come onto my plate and STEAL whatever she wants!! Quaker, sun conure, IRN, caique, all will steal what I have. Budgies and tiels dont care.

I used to have a budgie that would eat whatever I was having. I have a pic somewhere of him on one side of the plate while I am eating supper from the other. He would jump on my Subway sub and chow down, whether I WANTED to share or not

So, no your birds aren't weird. They just want whatever YOU have

All my birds love meat The macaws will chew on a chicken or rib bone for an hour or more!
