CELERY
by eblake38 on Mon Oct 26, 2009 4:36 pm
Just wanting to know if zons can have raw celery, i have given it cooked in with mixed veggies, but want to try and give it raw. Don't want to do anything to harm them, so if someone knows, would you please let me know.

Raw celery is fine. I give it to my birds, especially the leaves. Now, there is not much nutrients in it. Far better to give, swiss chard, and romaine lettuce, as well as dandelion greens.

Cellery may not be as healthy as other vegetables, however it still has it's health benefits.

Monica is right.....
Raw celery is low in Saturated Fat, and very low in Cholesterol. It is also a good source of Riboflavin, Vitamin B6, Pantothenic Acid, Calcium, Magnesium, Phosphorus, and a very good source of Dietary Fiber, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin K, Folate, Potassium and Manganese.

Because of its texture, it's also kinda fun to gnaw while crispy cool. I like to think of benign replacements for the junk too many parrots are fed as "treats." Celery, carrot stix, sugar snap peas, and green beans are all better than chips, grapes and cheese.
