They can't get any nutrients from it, they get full on the bread and starve, the high carb content can also give them deformed wings.

Feed them chopped up salad, corn, rice, grapes, or bird seed.

My ducks loved worms and (boiled) potatoes

It’s just junk food for birds

Honestly I think the hate for bread is a little out of hand. Is it nutritious? No, but it’s not poison either. As long as it’s only a small part of their diet it’s not hurting anything.

I have a pet bird and 90% of her diet is nutritionally dense foods, but she still gets nibbles of bread and tortillas and so forth because small amounts of treats are perfectly fine. Same concept.

It doesn't really have any nutritional value for them but it fills them up so they don't eat as much of the things that they should be eating to get proper nutrition.
