Picky Parrot webinar – how often to feed

How many times a day should I offer veggies to my cockatiel? I usually do it twice a day… is that okay?

Hi Breyanna,

Yes, twice a day is fine as long as the total does not exceed 20% of the daily diet. It is important that a bird have food available in the cage at all times, for his physical and mental health. So always have some pellets in his cage and offer other foods when you can.

Thank you for asking Lafeber,
