I made Cookie scrambled egg! He loved it ! However I have one question. How often can birds eat eggs, because I know that too much eggs can cause allergic reactions in human body. What about birds? Is there any limitation on how much egg can bird eat and how often?

A) Egg is natural bird food for birds. It is made of the stuff that they need obviously.
B) I don't give her egg too often cause it's optional and not really necessary so I only give it about once a month.

Marvin had scrambled eggs today for the first time and he loved them!

Noodle loves them too and was VERY happy to get them again!

no teflon here but i dont spray the pan or cook with oils either.
a little bit of water in teh bottom of the pan stops the egg sticking just fine.
I also only add the egg shell before scrambling and serve up in half of the shell as well

I serve about once a fortnight to once a month.

( this one was taken when batman was in her hospital cage not long after she came to us )

My cockatiel, Kugel, is 20yrs old and loves scrambled eggs and toast. I fry mine in virgin coconut oil that has many benefits for birds. Antibacterial, antiviral, lowers cholesterol, lower in calories then most oils.

I'm impressed that you have a 20yr old cockatiel - have you had Kugel since babyhood?

You can also microwave-scramble eggs...

I know, I know, I have a hard time letting these things go -- but eating too much egg doesnt cause allergies in people. You can develop an allergy without warning where you didn't have one before, but it isn't directly related to the quantity consumed. The main concern with eggs has always been cholesterol, but I think now we don't really feel dietary cholesterol is all that bad after all!
