Yes, birds can eat chickpeas, but only if they are cooked, unsalted, and served in moderation. Avoid giving raw, canned, or seasoned chickpeas as they may contain harmful compounds, salt, or spices. Cooked Kabuli Chana (white chickpeas) is rich in protein, fiber, and essential minerals, making it a nutritious addition to a balanced bird feed. It helps support energy, digestion, and feather growth, especially in parrots, pigeons, and backyard poultry.
