Our top-notch recommendation? A hearty primary pelleted diet paired with a daily medley of veggies, fruits, nuts, grains, seeds, and proteins. Think of it as a daily culinary symphony for your avian companions! These delectable offerings can be served as delightful treats or blended into a wholesome mixed chop, elevating their standard fare.
And here's a pro tip: when in doubt, lean towards the veggie side of life rather than overindulging in fruits and nuts. Keep in mind, the colours of your bird's diet might leave their mark on their droppings! So, should their poop take on a vibrant hue post-indulgence in colourful treats, no need to fret – it's all part of the avian palette! 🌈🦜

Moderation
Think of your bird's diet like a grand buffet of scrumptious options. While a nibble here and there can be delightful, moderation is the secret sauce! Just like us humans, birds need to steer clear of overindulging in certain treats.
