First of all don't do it right away, wait at least a couple months and let her settle in her new place. then you can start to gradually switch her to pellets. you should do it within about 10 days. first day start with 10% pellets and 90% seeds, second day 20% pellets and so on until it's only pellets.

Thanks for reaching out about your cockatiel. There are concerns over sand perches as the abrasiveness can lead to minor dermal trauma, and then possible infection if standing on a perch with feces. Not recommended. Good luck.

A good quality commercial pelleted diet such as Harrison's, Lafeber, KayTee Exact or Pretty Bird can provide complete nutrition. You can supplement with small amounts of a fortified seed mix as well as a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables.

It sounds like Cheeko may just be excited and enjoys getting out and exploring. Singing and chirping can be signs that he's enjoying his time. Offering some fun toys to play with and safe things to explore may help encourage this behavior. As for things to give when he does something you like, a favorite treat such as a piece of fruit (apple or strawberry slices are always favorites, or even a piece of lettuce or spinach!) can reward him. You can also find many commercial bird treats at your local pet store that are safe to give.

Hello. You will want to use a very good formulated pelleted feed for Loki. Stay away as much as possible from all seed diets. Pellets should compromise 75-80% of the total daily food intake. 20% of the diet should be fruits, vegetables & greens ( not lettuce ). Nutri-berries would be a good treat, but keep the amounts small. And of course, fresh water daily. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.
