Hey, can cockatiels eat cherries and feed their offsoring cherries too? Is it healthy for them or bad?

When I bred cockatiels, they used to love cherries. Better yet though, they really liked brocolli (after they got over the fear of the new green thing in their cage). However, I found that when breeding birds, it was better to reduce the fruit because it could cause diarrhea in the chicks. For a comprehensive list of healthy versus dangerous fruits and vegetables, most pet bird care books provide a list of them (often you can get all sorts of these books from the local public library).
Better yet, here's a decent link:
