| Bird | Daily Seed Portion* | Serving Tips |
|---|---|---|
| Budgie | 7–10 g per day (about 1.5–2 tsp) |
Split across 2 feeds. Add chopped leafy greens most days. |
| Cockatiel / small parrots | 12–18 g per day (about 2.5–3.5 tsp) |
Offer in a dish and in a foraging toy for enrichment. |
*Guides only. Individual needs vary with age, activity, and health. Monitor body condition and adjust amounts as needed. Seek avian vet advice for tailored feeding.
Transition guide
Introduce gradually over 7–10 days by mixing a small amount with your bird’s current seed and increasing the proportion every few days. This supports acceptance and helps you monitor intake.
Serving and enrichment ideas
- Rotate between a standard bowl and a simple foraging setup to encourage activity
- Use a shallow dish to let birds pick and sort for mental stimulation
- Offer fresh, bird-safe vegetables most days to broaden nutrition and add moisture
Storage
Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. For long-term freshness, you can refrigerate or freeze in small portions. Always use clean scoops and bowls.
