I'm looking for a place to get non-galvanized stainless steel screws for parrot stands. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Michael's correct. If the screws are labeled as "stainless steel" then you're good. You can find SOME stainless steel screws at the big box home improvement stores. You might have a better selection at ACE Hardware or at a local specialty hardware store.
What you want to stay away from is zinc coated screws. Zinc can kill your birds.
