It's okay to have peanuts but they should be in tough, small mesh, feeders.
This means the birds only peck tiny bits off and don't take whole nuts which
they then stuff down the throats of their hapless offspring, choking them to
death.

Does this really happen? Has anyone ever found a dead chick with a
whole peanut stuck in its throat?
