Bread is harmful for birds - Benn - 05-14-2008

Throwing bread to birds is harmful for them, as in the result of some experiments, it was proved that it is a waste for the birds' digestive juices and fills them up without doing them any good. It's funny of course, but it's a fact :lol:

I heard that bread and beer (both from grain) helped humans to progress and become more longevive and healthy. For example the greek monks eat just bread, olives and raisins and drink water(or wine in holidays)and liveI ussually many years. What is wrong giving bread to birds? :livre :quoi

maybe the birds digesting system is a little bit different from the human's. I don't know. But I also sometimes in parks feed birds with bread, and can you imagine - none of them died!

That’s absolutely not true!
I had a parrot, and we gave him bread all the time, from what I remember. And he leaved quite happy with us during 11 or 12 years, till the moment he was old for his feather.
I miss him a lot.

An article doesn’t mean anything.
I'm telling you real time facts.
I wish I could give you a link to them too Smile

have you heard about exceptions? One who smokes may live 100 years, one who doesn't - 50 years. The point is the general trend.


Re: Bread is harmful for birds - Hakan G - 08-18-2008

Then I'm happy that it was an exception :lol: :lol:

Re: Bread is harmful for birds - M.Helen - 08-22-2008

but we can't afford to feed birds with other things. It would be expensive.


Re: Bread is harmful for birds - Karl.in.eu - 08-30-2008

If you care about your lovely pet, then you should sacrifice a little more. Remember the pet must live its life not survive it.


Re: Bread is harmful for birds - Benn - 10-23-2008

Even if not talking about pets, but about wild birds, they also need our help. Do not forget that and feed them whenever it's possible.

why is it stupid? You're just trying to help birds. By the way, pigeons are the symbol of peace, we can't let them remain with no food.

Did you know that because of bread our teeth worsen? That's because while eating it, the white bread activates gastric juice secretion. This has a bad influence on our teeth, and not only on teeth <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://mywebsite.bigpond.com/smartboard/bread.htm">http://mywebsite.bigpond.com/smartboard/bread.htm</a><!-- m -->
