Dear Parrots magazine,
Is variety the best solution?
Choosing the right diet to feed my birds has never been an easy decision, particularly with the many different opinions that I have read about. Do I feed seed, pellets, fresh food or whatever else?
There seems to be this ongoing battle with those who support a basic seed diet and those who prefer pellets, leaving me with a big question mark as to which way to go.
Having read many articles on diet and nutrition, I have decided to give my birds the widest diet so they now get some seed, some pellets, and lots of greens, fruit and much more. From the results I see, my birds seem to be quite happy and, indeed, healthy, so I can't be doing too much wrong.
