This list has been compiled as a courtesy of Bird Crazy in San Diego, CA. We cannot know of every toxic or poisonous substance in existence, so it is by no means a complete or inclusive list.

Signs of poisoning can include; bloody or severe regurgitation, collapse, coma, convulsions, coughing, depression, loose stools, stopped breathing, redness around mouth, shock, and/or unconsciousness. Treatment will depend on the particular poison swallowed.
