Your bird needs a balanced diet to live a long and healthy life. This diet should consist of pellets, fresh vegetables, seeds, fruits, and nuts, tailored to your bird’s species and needs.
Keypoints:
Pellets: 60–70%
Provides essential nutrients to help prevent deficiencies. Pellets should be the primary part of the diet for many birds, though some species require a higher proportion of other foods.
Fresh Vegetables: 20–30%
A great source of vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Offer a variety of bird-safe veggies to add nutrients and enrichment.
Seed Mix: 5–10%
Seeds provide healthy fats and proteins, but should be limited to avoid an unbalanced diet. The mix can vary based on your bird’s species.
Fruits and Nuts: 5–10%
Fruits add variety and natural sugars, while nuts provide fats and proteins. Serve in moderation as treats or rewards.
