You can feed it to all different parakeets like lovebirds, cockatiels. It has 30 different foods in there like fruit, seeds, nuts, vegetables, eggs. It's got all different stuff in there which is enriched with vitamin A.

All your essential vitamins are in there. The great stuff about this food is that you don't need a crossover period. So, whatever food they've been feeding before, you don't have to slowly mix it in with this food.

You can put them straight on to this food because it is a complete, balanced diet. Obviously, you don't want to just be feeding them just that food day in and day out. They do like different textures and different things to eat.

So give them in different bowls plenty of fruit, vegetables, and obviously treats. You can get like bumper bells, which is obviously you've got fruit, honey, seeds, and nuts in there. And obviously, it's something for them to chew on.

It prevents boredom and obviously it's something nice for them to eat. When settling your bird into a new home, sometimes they can get stressed due to new temperatures, new environment, new people, new sounds, and even just through the movement of coming home. That may cause diarrhea from stress.

Grit, if you give a bowl of grit every day to every other day. It aids digestion so it's very good for them and it's especially good for obviously new birds, especially when they're in a time of stress. Millet is something they love.

You don't want to feed it every day, it can be quite fattening for them. But it is good for them, but just not too much. Cuttlefish is a cuttlefish bone.

Obviously, it's enriched with calcium. Not only do they love to chew on it, it also helps to keep that beak nice and trim. The iodized conditioning pack is a mineral block which is also very good for them.

It has all your essential mineral and vitamins plus it helps to keep that beak nice and trim. They're water bowl should be changed every day to twice a day. You want to make sure that water's nice and fresh.

And keep your water well away from the bird bath because you don't want them to be mistaken. There is also a type of vitamins which you can get in a liquid form which you can add to the water. You can buy them from any of your local pet stores.
