I was surprised to find out what can cause serious consequences for our birds..........Grape pedialyte, cherrios!!

Check out the article by examiner #17, it's a real eye opener.

The link disappeared!

oh carp! Julian loves Cherrios!  sadboy3 not anymore

well, it is par for the course in this house, stuff gets crossed off the "you can have this , it is safe" list all the time.

thank you for the info Sondra, I would have felt terrible knowing I made him sick.. so no artificial sweetners for birds!!! GOOD to know!!! no splenda/sweet n low/equal, etc..

and the grape pedialyte!! OMG!!! I have given that to my KIDS!!! WTH is wrong that they let this through! omg.

Artificial sweeteners are bad for us so I am sure they are bad for the birds too.  We do not use any artificial sweeteners in our house.   But the cheerios thing, who'd of thunk it??  Oh well, my birds won't be able to try them.  That is ok, max would eat them, but i am pretty sure ruby would not.  She is so finicky!!! groggy
