Currently I am feeding him a range of nuts, seeds, green veg and fruit supplemented by daily essentials 3 and Calcivet calcium supplement with vitamin D3. Rocky can be quite a fussy eated and tends to pick the seeds out the mix he likes the most which is usually sunflower seeds which are very fatty and can cause liver problems in parrots if eaten in excess so I am trying to "ween" him onto a All-in-one' composition pellet which breeders recommend for a balanced diet. He will still get his nuts and seeds in a reduced quantity and of course the fruit and veg will still be there.
The pellet I have choosen is Beaphar's care plus...
Made from ingredients which are more than 95% organic and cold pressed in to pellets for Grey Parrots to enjoy. The ingredients (over 25 of them) are not heated to ensure they retain the natural nutritional values.
A complete diet such as Beaphar Care+ for African Grey Parrots offers better value as there is very little to no waste created, unlike with seed diets where shells and husk, plus unfavoured food is discarded.
Vegetables, fruits and pulse crops are naturally full of vitamins and minerals and all have been used to create these pellets.
