Are the hard anodized non stick pots and pans okay for birds?
I'm living with a friend right now and that's what she has at the house.
I'm concerned about using them, are they safe?

Hard anodized what? (Aluminum steel?)

What is the coating?

The important issue with any cooking pan is that there is no PTFE nor PFOA in the materials it is made from. If you don't have the packaging, you can look up the manufacturers phone number and call and ask if there is any of either in the pans. Look for non PTFE and PFOA when buying.

Non stick coatings usually mean Teflon. You'd have to contact the manufacturer

The ad doesn't mention non-PTFE, PFOA, so it probably isn't. But contact the manufacturer to be sure.

Damn well, have any suggestions for still cooking with it with her in the house?
I usually keep her in the room with the window open and curtains shut.
(No door.)

Is this okay?

I can't say. Why don't you contact the manufacturer?
