    RIO and blow dryers!

    Hi there! I have read that it could be dangerous for a bird to be blown dry because there's something (I think Teflon) inside the dryer that could be toxic.

    Please be careful! I think it's the same toxic fumes that come off a non-stick pan (which is dangerous for birds).

    Rio is ADORABLE! Grace

    Yes that is so. I will try to find the link and post the article soon (not tonight, must go to bed) Dunno about hairdryers but certainly non-stick saucepans (PTFE coated)

    Anyway Rio, you are ravishing, handsome and clever. Enjoy your special POTD day in the spotlight

    I have heard the same thing, but not about it being in blow dryers. I think you're right though. I know that teflon is TOXIC to birds.
