Does Your Bird Like Peas?

[Dewdrop]

One of mine loves the crunchy outside of sugar snap peas, and the other loves squishy thawed peas.

Toot and Sulley eat and like peas but they are a favorite for Jenks. He will go for and eat all of the peas first and then look for more before eating anything else.

After the corn and green beans are demolished, Fergus and Fiona will eat some peas. I think they try to avoid the skins also. But woe is the one who tries to feed them carrots - they ABHOR carrots!

Not sure why I thought trying to put them on a screwer was a good idea haha

indie was first to check them out but ate the sesame seeds over peas

Sugarsnap peas work well on a skewer

 

[Love My Zons]

Everyone here loves peas. Sophie will eat thawed frozen, so will the Zons. Everyone will eat fresh sugar snap, green bean too.

Snow peas, too

Snow peas

My guys think snow peas are shreddable toys, not food.

I think Ripley mostly shreds most of the foods he "eats" I am not entirely sure how much he actually eats

Milton obsessively loves peas. (He doesn't eat the skins either.) He eats the frozen peas. Elvis will eat fresh peas but doesn't love them. The tiels will eat anything I give them basically. They don't seem to have a favorite vegetable.

Widget likes thawed frozen peas but he kind of just thinks they’re little toys unless I open them for him to eat the inside. He really likes freeze dried peas too.

Snow peas, too

Had to google snow peas mangetout isnt as popular as the pea is to small compared to sugarsnap, not worth the effort to get them out for my two methinks.

That's fair

Sugar snap peas are their absolute favorites, hands down! They love removing the peas from the pods. If they're offered as peas in their bowls? Nope!

Jericho reminded me of this earlier when I offered him a grape: if he can't taste the item through the skin, he doesn't like it.
Cutting things in half and exposing the tasty parts works for him.

That's how I got Bosco to eat his veggies! Especially the peas I exposed the soft insides than he was like heck yeah I want that!

Riley turns his beak up at frozen/thawed peas, I think because they're too mushy. He likes the fresh "English" peas I bought him at Trader Joe's, but sugar snap peas are hands down his fav green veggie. But he only eats the pea out of the middle and will toss the whole thing on the floor if I don't open it for him . Also rejected green beans, but we'll keep trying those and see if maybe he warms up.

My 4 budgies love peas! (They don't get them often.) I usually use frozen peas, thawed or lightly cooked.

Fresh sugar snap peas are Ralph's absolute favorite thing to eat. He also likes warmed up frozen green peas as an occasional change of pace. He's not too fond of snow peas since the peas inside the pods don't amount to much and the pods themselves just don't hit the spot for him. George the YCA was just as crazy about fresh green peas as Ralph is.
Scooter the CAG would not eat any kind of peas, but she loved to chew up empty peapods. In the morning I would take the peas out of the pod to put in Ralph's food dish and then Scooter would get the empty pod to tear apart.

All of my conures will eat peas but the favorite of peas are sugar snap peas. They get the whole pod to open for the peas. Henry will eat the sugar snap peas … Lola is team meh “not eating those green things or green balls”. The Zons are too picky regarding vegetables. Blueberries are either regarded as evil beings for those two (sometimes Henry will brave eating a couple but he freaked out a couple days ago when I put some in his evening grub bowl). And for Gawd sake never put a blackberry in his bowl or anywhere else… it’s a very scary monster.
