It sounds close minded when some on says birds dont drink tea in the wild ... and no matter how old some information is it can still hold weight unless some one wants to discount it ....I just do the best I can by my birds without feeding pellets and should not be belittled for doing so ...I have done my research and have decided on that research that pellets have and will do damage to my flock if fed exclusively ...so I dont even want to have them any where around just like peanuts...is that so hard to understand ...I choose to believe others over some on this issue just like you believe others over some ...there will never be an agreement ..because I will never suddenly say oh you are right I better give my birds some artificially dyed compressed over cooked lil mashed up pellet ..just like you will never say oh I better not give my bird their pellets anymore ....this issue always ends up the same no matter how it starts ..its just better to agree to disagree and let the issue alone
Asking for information is the opposite of close minded. I'm very open minded and love to learn! But I also know how to determine if a source is a able to hold up it's claims. That's not being close minded, that's just not accepting facts as face value because it's on the internet and sounds reasonable. We're not discounting, we're hoping to have a conversation to better understand.
