Can parrots eat cilantro?

Safe to share
Cilantro · Herbs

Yes — cilantro is safe, vitamin-rich, and a documented favorite of many conures.

Keeper's noteWash well; offer stems and all. If your bird inherited the human 'cilantro tastes like soap' gene's avian equivalent, parsley-free herb mixes still leave basil and dill to try.

Why cilantro is good for parrots

Cilantro (coriander leaf) carries vitamins A, C, and K in an aromatic package most parrots find exciting. Stems, leaves, and even coriander seeds are all safe.
