I have collected crystals since before I’ve had birds…
Mostly amethyst geodes, rose quartz, quartz, calcite, fluorite, selenite, citrine, obsidian, aragonite.
My budgie and Linnie have never shown any interest in them or even gone near them.
they are scattered around the house as decor, mostly up on shelves… not anywhere where the girls play other than one that’s on my husbands desk. They don’t really play there unsupervised… or anywhere unsupervised actually. I work from home so I can watch them.
anyway, as a psycho bird lady I have gotten rid of all my plants and have lovely fake ones (paranoid about them eating even safe plants or soil) I have turned my house and life upside down, I read guests there rights when they come over. I’m so overprotective and hyper aware.
BUT!
i never thought about the crystals… i never heard anything about them.
I feel so dumb for not thinking about it.
Should I put them all in a glass cabinet or on really high shelves? Encase them in terrariums?
my girls have never even looked at them like I said, they have teeny beaks and don’t try to nibble things. They have so many toys and playstands and shredded stuff everywhere that nothing else interests them (except their daddy’s laptop ) and the crystals aren’t in their regular path or close to their playing places, if that makes sense
but now that I’m thinking about it, and I read an article linked from a post, about levels of toxins in crystals, I am super paranoid! You know, weird flukes can happen even when they are being supervised.
any other crystal lovers? What do you do with yours?
Thank you!
