Food Ideas and Recipes

What do you mean, I eat like a bird?

A great debate rages as to whether pellets or seeds are better for our companion parrots. My answer to the whole dilemma is that neither are "the perfect diet", and so a variety of seed, pellets, nuts, fruits & vegetables and "human" table food should be offered to our birds for their meals.

Fresh Food Ideas

Birds benefit from fresh food on a daily basis. Favorite fresh foods include carrots, sweet potatoes, corn, peapods and apples.

Foods To Avoid

Alchohol
Tobacco
Caffeine
Avacado
Apple Seeds
Peach Pits
Cheese (small amounts are ok)
