arrow564,

I've never heard that, but there shouldn't be any reason why they couldn't have them. I would have to look at the list of ingredients, but I would think the plain cone would be the better choice because I think the waffle cones have more added sugar. Just like with us, too much refined sugar can lead to obesity and related diseases like fatty liver disease, so you don't want to overdue the junk foods. Do you give your birds fresh fruits and veggies? It can be hard to get Budgies (Parakeets) to eat fresh foods, but they are very good for them. If you try giving them cones and they like them, you might be able to use them to try to introduce fresh foods by putting some in the cone. (Sometimes we have to outsmart our babies :D )
