Howards asks,
Can she have home-roasted garlic?
No Howard, birds cannot have garlic.
It is toxic to them in any form be it powdered, raw, cooked, or processed.

To be safe, do not add any other seasonings like salt, onion, or cayenne pepper to a bird’s diet either.
Here’s a list of bird-safe spices
Have a safe holiday weekend
