  1. Parrotlet Diet
    Hello! I was wondering if anyone had tried either freeze dried or frozen chop and if there were any brand recommendations or brands to stay away from? Tofu usually has some of the bird safe, fresh veggies that we have during the week (I eat a lot of salad and now work at home so I just make sure...

  4. Parrotlet Diet
    I'm in the UK. Bought a 1.8kg bag of Small Parrot Hagen Hari Tropimix but Dodi has the lovebird cockatiel mix so would anyone use it? I'm not expecting loads of money for it, it has been opened and then I realised how big the food was for my little Dodi.

  6. Parrotlet Diet
    Hi everyone! I will bringing home my first parrotlet in mid-May and have been doing quite a bit of reading about pellet and seed brands. I've seen a lot of conflicting information.

    Good evening everyone! As the title suggests, I will soon be a first-time bird owner, specifically Parrotlets. I've done extensive research about them before making a decision to actually own one. It started off with my mom wanting a bird, a giant Macaw specifically. I told her that they were...

  18. Parrotlet Diet
    I am going to convert my bird's diet from seeds to Roudybush but I am having trouble deciding on what size buy. I was thinking the mini pellets, but I don't know if they would be too big for him? Also what size bag would you recommend buying so that he has time to eat the food while it's still...
  19. Your Parrotlet's Health
    I'm trying to switch my parrotlet off of her more unhealthy bird food to something a bit better. When we bought her from the breeder they gave us some ABBA seed (I think the 1200 - but I'm not sure) and she'd eat that. I was looking at switching her back to that and mixing in the pellet food...
