RIO Vegetable Mix For Parakeets & Parrots - 150 g

RIO Vegetable Mix For Parakeets & Parrots - 150 g is a 150 g mix of dried vegetables from Rio for parakeets and parrots.

Key Features

• Dried vegetables rather than fruit: Which puts it at the lower-sugar end of the Rio mixes, and makes it the easiest of them to give regularly.
• Pieces for a bigger beak: Sized for parakeets and parrots.
• One hundred and fifty grams: A single pack size on this listing.
• Ask us for the ingredient panel: We would rather confirm the exact recipe with you than print a list we cannot stand behind - see below.

Before You Order

• Ask us for a photograph of the ingredient panel off the pack. We would rather confirm the exact recipe with you than print a list we cannot stand behind.
• What is not in doubt: it is a 150 g pack of dried vegetables intended for parakeets and parrots.
• Parakeets and parrots covers everything from a cockatiel to a grey. Tell us which you keep and we will give you a sensible daily amount rather than a rule.

How Much, And How To Give It

• Treats stay under about a tenth of what a bird eats in a day. It is an easy rule and almost nobody keeps to it, which is why overweight cage birds are so common.
• Give it from your hand or in a separate dish rather than tipping it into the seed bowl. Mixed in, a bird eats the interesting part and leaves its actual food.
• Dried vegetable is still not fresh vegetable. Keep offering real greens and let this be the standby for days when you have none.

Good To Know

• Keep it sealed, dry and out of the sun. Dried fruit and oily seed both turn in this humidity, and anything musty, dusty or webbed goes in the bin rather than the cage.
• Introduce anything new in a small amount and watch the droppings for a day. A sudden change of food upsets a small bird quickly.
