CRITICAL INFORMATION ON CEDAR TOXICITY TO BIRDS!!

A tragic accident that took the lives of their pet birds. (2, a half moon Conure and an Indian Ringneck) A couple were preparing dinner, they were making salmon and they put it on a cedar board and into the oven. Apparently this is how some people prepare salmon, and this cedar board is available anywhere. Anyhow, shortly after placing the board in the oven to bake, the one bird, who was on the husbands shoulder, starting to have respiratory problems and started to wobble and fell right off his shoulder. They had no idea of what was happening, it was very sudden, and they rushed the bird to the vet, but it died on the way there. Upon returning, they found the other bird dead in his cage. Cedar is very toxic to birds. You should not use cedar chips in a birds cage on the bottom or for chicks, because it can cause respiratory distress! The couple is devastated, to say the least. So a warning to all!!
