Wouldn't be that clever. They only have one beak per bird, so travelling longer distances isn't worth the effort, or you'd have to pay them with more food. Crow

- Markoff 5y agoIt depends, if they could swallow them and then vomit on purpose then their capacity would be significantly increased over one beak capacity.
- bayesian_horse 5y agoBirds can't do that. Also they'd get nicotine poisoning. That would be a risk even if they used their goiter. And it would taste terrible.
- Markoff 5y agoDo they even have taste buds which would taste the difference. From what i know birds can't taste spiciness, so they can eat whatever habanero you give them.
