Just added few pothos plants around a favorite hide. My question is it ok for a cherryhead redfoot to nibble on it. Read has high oxalic acid in one post and being ok in the next.

just wondering if i should remove

Cherryheads seem to have no problem with pothos and I myself use them in my young Cherryhead enclosures. As long as this is not the constant base item in the diet, but just a small part of a variety filled diet, there should be no problems.

Should be good. Most the forest dwellers have no problems with it. They also devour it. Like jacqui said make sure to feed everything else in variety. Just a warning, it might get eaten all of it. I constantly have to get more and take mutilated plants out to let them regrow, all my forest dwellers love it.
