What's the best diet for my conure bird, including fresh foods?

A commercial pelleted diet is most convenient and typically provides more complete nutrition. Recommended brands include Harrison's and LaFeber. A seed mix can be offered as well but limit amounts to prevent obesity. Fresh fruits and vegetables can also be offered. A simple search online will yield lists of acceptable fruits and vegetables.

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 Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.

AT this age, he should be weaning. Begin introducing a pelleted diet, about 1/4 cup daily to start. Harrison's, Roudybush, Lafeber or Pretty Bird are excellent brands. You may still need to provide supplemental feedings. Monitor his weight closely. You can also offer fresh greens and vegetables as well as a seed mix such as NutriBerries.

Thanks for reaching out about Rangu. This depends on the type of bird. If we are discussing a parrot (lovebird to macaw), seeds are a poor diet, as is very hight in fat and low in vitamin/minerals. The diet should consist of a wide variety of vegetables, a proteins source such as beans/legumes, cooked carbohydrates as an energy source, and avian pellets. Good luck.

It is an excellent food which is why I recommended it. All of their diet are great! I'm sorry if I eluded to switching the diet slowly. I did not mean that. It is best to change right away. Please refer to this link which should answer all of your questions on how to change diets. You can also call Lafeber's for help. They will be happy to help you.

Look for a commercial pelleted diet (Harrison's, Lafeber, Pretty Bird, KayTee Exact or Roudybush). These can be purchased online or in most pet stores. Discontinue the almonds and dry fruit. As you know, these do not make up a balanced or healthy diet. Instead, supplement with a bit of a fortified seed mix, fresh fruit and vegetables and cooked grains and beans. You can let her eat rice or cooked eggs off your plate (or from her own plate with you at the table) to get her interested in other, healthier options.
