    What do you give your parrots as snacks in between regular feedings? My birds love sugar snap peas as a healthy daily treat. They each get 4 a day because they don't eat the pods - only the peas. It's great because it gives them foraging enrichment. To make it even more fun, place the peas in Featherland Paradise's Firecracker foot toy shown below:  Low salt fried green peas or chick peas are a good training treat rather than a fattening seed or nut. However tempting it may be, refrain from offering pizza, sugary sweets, and anything dairy. Other healthy snacks that my birds love are Caitec's Oven Fresh Bites and Lafeber's Nutriberries.
