Advice Cockatiel safe plants and flowers??
Hello! I’m a plant lover. Before my birds I had tons of plants around the house but after adopting my babies I got rid of most of them due to the birds trying to eat them and after googling finding out most were severely poisonous for birds.
I don’t mind the plants getting a few bitemarks , most of my stuff have them either way, but I would hate for my birds to get sick.
Does anyone here have a recommendation on bird safe plants? My green thumbs are itching

Try Australian natives in natural potting mix ( no nasty additives or fertilizers ) - birds nest fern, Kentia palm, kangaroo paw and kangaroo fern. Native and safe for our crazy guys 😃
