Question

Do African Grey Timnehs bother people with asthma?

Answer 1

It depends, do you wash/clean your bird regularly?

Or do you clean it not often.

If you clean it often (Spray with a bottle of mist for a shower) then it will not bother people with asthma.

If you don't clean it at all and want it hand-tamed and able to be handled at all, they can get a little occasional dust on them sometimes so i reccomend you don't get one if you have asthma and you do not clean it at all.

Goodluck!

Answer 2

Their down feathers are designed for the end to break down into a white powder. It wouldn't be a good idea with asthma.

Answer 3

Any bird may bother anyone with asthma or allergies. The worst I would say are African Greys and Cockatoos. They have awful feather down dust. I have one Grey and a air purifier and things are still covered with white dust. Maybe a parakeet or something smaller. I would also get a good air purifier. Good luck. Any bird is a good bird.

Answer 4

They are a dusty bird, So yes they can. I would think about another kind if your asthma is bad.
