Hi all! I just joined this group in hopes to get some questions answered. My mother recently passed away and her galah was bonded to me so I’ve acquired a beautiful, stubborn, needy, but EXTREMELY sweet galah But my mother always took the lead on her care and scared everyone in the house on how sensitive these birds are to, well, just about everything. We always use vinegar to clean, but I recently bought some Grove Collaborative products thinking the plant based products will be safe and make the house smell good (we also have 3 dogs and a teenage boy in the house) but on further research I read that essential oils are bad for them, but I also read they’re only toxic if they’re in a diffuser, not diluted or put directly in the bird, so I’m coming here to double check that, and also to ask what everyone feeds their picky birds? I took Blossom (our galah) to the vet not too long ago and was told she’s fat So, I tried working on that while my mom was still here, but she was super set in her ways. If anyone has ANY advice for me it is VERY MUCH appreciated. I just really want to do right by her, she’s all I have left of my mother.
