Paper Consumption!!!

[ConureCrazy2]

Ok, well, I gave my two GCCs streamer paper stuffed in a wiffle ball for the first time today. They had only had crinkle paper before and liked pulling it oit. The streamers, however, were thinner and fairly easy for them to break off peices of. They took about 4 tiny bites of the paper until I managed to take it away. Will they be ok?? Vet needed? It was only 4 to 5 bites combined. I'd like to know if this is serious.

My Conures use paper to clean there beaks so I do not know. Do they actually eat it or are pieces of paper all around

No, they were actualy eating it. I took it away, but the two of them took about 4-5 bites; the two combined.

Nah, it's nothing to worry about. Although if you're talking about that colored party streamer paper, I wouldn't let them eat any more, I'm not sure what kind of dyes those use. you can get toys made with plain white paper rolls from several vendors here, those would be pretty safe.

I honestly think they are fine, but i think I'll stick to crinckle paper, for some reason, they just pull it. Just this thin paper I guess. Picky picky! Oliver, my sennie, just tears it up.
