Description : Whenever I take fruit, I share it with my sun conure. I cut off a little piece for him and I eat the rest. Sometimes I can't get off all the fruit from the pit. Is it OK if I give it to him to eat and to play with? Will my germs hurt him? Can the pit do him harm?
Last Answer : Apple seeds and the pits of cherries, peaches, plums nectarines and apricots contain a cyanide compound. They are dangerous to humans as well, although being much larger than our birds, we would have to eat ... away from the pit or keep on eye out and remove it when the bird finishes the fruit.
