She says I am forcing it to be a cannibal, but I am not forcing it. Anything fried, french fries, nuggetts, this bird loves. And it begs me to feed it some. So do you think there is something wrong with feeding a bird to a bird?

If the chicken nuggets are from McDonalds, you are okay. There is no chicken in them.

No it's not immoral, but it probably isn't that good for the cockatiel. Fried foods are never good for pets, you might cause the poor bird to get sick one of these days by feeding it French fries and chicken nuggets.

It really isn't cannibalism, since they are different species, but I'm a vegetarian, and since cockatiels aren't naturally carnivorous in any way, I would say that it's wrong. Chickens are also some of the most abused animals in the meat industry, but I'll stop now. Sorry if I just ruined your day, by telling you that.
I assume that Dog Sneeze is joking.

I guess it would depend on your motive. Since it's your mom's bird and she told you not to do it, I think there would probably be some moral issues, but the issues about if it's okay for the bird -- I would see that as an issue of the bird's health, not morals.

Birds eat other birds in the wild - although not usually their same species.
I think it's ok - if the bird eats it and it is not going to cause it physical harm.

No. There's chicken EGGS in bird seed. Its good for their beaks. Tiels can eat anything you SHOULD eat. Give him all the chicken nuggets he wants. He'll only love you for it.

My larger birds , cockatoo and Amazon love to chew on bones, chicken, porkchop, steak!. I also give them meat. It is healthy for them.
