Will this do him any harm?More often than not its in the form of toast. The bits he get has no butter on anything else on it. Thank You Edited May 29, 2008 by *libby* Changed TY - Thank You.

I have seen my budgies poop on the perch and then walk through it and your probably getting a nice sprinkle of feather dust on your toast too. Ewwwww... Link to comment
