This is the First I've heard of this. Is this common knowledge? I'm looking for more references for this information, something more tangible. Maybe an actual study on the subject, or some sort of proof. But for now I've stopped using non-stick surfaces. Better safe than sorry. The paragraph was copied from
My cockatoos.com.

All nonstick surfaces have Teflon type coatings that produce a gas that kills birds - FAST! Opt for stainless, alum, copper, glass, or enamel. TEFLON coatings can be found in many household appliances - ovens, toasters, irons, waffle irons, coffeemakers, hairdryers, etc. If you think just this one time won't hurt, YOU ARE WRONG! If you can't part with the nonstick stuff, then at some point you will be parting with your parrot from death of the fumes.
