Pea Pod Playtime

Give your parrot a reason to play with its food! Snow peas and snap peas are a healthy and convenient snack that incorporates foraging and item manipulation!

These types of peas were cultivated with an edible pod, and can be fed cooked or raw- just makes sure they are washed well. Both types are a good source of Vitamin C, Vitamin K, Iron, and a range of B-vitamins. Try offering snap pea pods and snow pea pods whole, halved, by hand during out-of-cage play time, or even skewered on a stainless steel treat/toy kabob.
