parrots will accept meat, but that does not mean it is good for them. their primary diet should consist of fruits, seeds/nuts, veggies and appropriate parrot pellets. herbs and some chilli peppers are also a good idea to prevent bactierial infections. because they do not typically eat meat in the wild, i would not recommend giving it to them.

(added) This was found on the internet from someone that is an expert in African Grey Parrots in response to a question about parrots eating meat:

A parrot can have anything humans eat that is HEALTHY AND NUTRITIOUS, except chocolate (baker's chocolate actually, but all chocolate has caffeine), caffeine, sugar (limit), salt (limit), avacado, citrus seeds...check internet for more. Chicken BONES (the meat is OK, but not the chicken skin) are good because the parrots eat the bone marrow, which is highly nutritious (turkey, etc., bones, too). I don't know about crab claws, but as long as they are nutritious and the bird will eat it, no problem! Some of my parrots like shrimp. I give my parrots chicken leg bones and they love them!

-- There has also been things mentioned on the internet that parrot will eat small insects in the wild.

Um I'm pretty sure you can eat it. But weather or not it tastes good, will make you sick, or if its legal, I don't know. o_O Why would you WANT to eat a parrot?
