    Fowl (disambiguation)
    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    The term fowl refers to certain birds often used as food by humans, which make up the Galloanserae clade.

    This is the definition of Fowl according to Wikipedia. If they are trying to ban Fowl, parrots do not apply to this category!! How then can they be included in a ban of Fowl??

    To answer Karens question, I heard about this on FB.

    The actual proposed legislation is so broad it could apply to all birds, it is not specifically worded. And folks worry it could be seen to apply to other pets easily, too!
