Conures & Quakers loved this
Both my birds absolutely love this. Recommend putting in microwave safe bowl to help catch popped corn. Great fiber snack but beware not to cook for too long cobb will burn otherwise.

Some birds love it and some don’t
I originally ordered this for my inherited 23 year old cockatiel. He was terrified. But he is scared of alot of things. My 2 parakeets went crazy over it. They munch on the popcorn until they can’t get anymore off of it. When I put it in the microwave I cover it with a lightly damp paper towel. It will make a mess while popping but it’s easy to clean up. I will be buying this treat again.

Was a hit with my bird!
There are about 8 cobs in the bag and just one gave me enough popcorn to fill this bowl. Not sure if she enjoys eating it or tearing it up but it buys me a good 10mins of peace!

Sunny with a chance of popcorn
Listen I got these for my love bird. I wanted her to eat popcorn like I do. I was under the impression the kernels would stick on the cob while popping. Boy was I wrong! You have to be precise in the cooking because just the slight to much sets your fire alarm on if you know what I mean. Itâs a big mess in the microwave it looked like sunny with a chance of meatballs happened but in my microwave and no meatballs just popcorn very tiny disappointing popcorn. Itâs a good novelty item but my bird never really ate it and all that trouble of cleaning from the microwave was for nothing.
